The ingredients for Mushroom-Lentil Quinoa Croquettes are:

1 tbsp water or 2 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
6 oz portobello mushrooms, chopped (you can substitute button or cremini)
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Dash salt and pepper
1 can lentils
1 cup walnuts, processed in a food processor, nut grinder, or Vita-Mix till they resemble a coarse meal
1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp tamari or nama shoyu
1 tbsp maple syrup or agave
1 tsp liquid smoke
1/2 cup nutritional yeast
1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley (or 1 tbsp dried)
2 tsp herbes de provence (or a mix of thyme, rosemary, and oregano)
1 cup whole wheat bread crumbs

Here is how you make Mushroom-Lentil Quinoa Croquettes:

1) Sautee the onion and garlic in water or oil till tender and translucent. Add the mushrooms and sautee till they?re tender and well cooked. Add 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar and a dash of salt and pepper. Keep sauteeing till the mixture has only a small amount of liquid left.2) Add the lentils and walnut meal to the pan, and give it all a few quick stirs. You want to keep stirring for about a two minutes, so that the walnuts take on a toasty flavor.3) Transfer everything to a big mixing bowl. Add the quinoa, ACV, tamari, maple syrup, liquid smoke, nutritional yeast, parsley, and herbs. Mix well with hands, as if you were making meatloaf (ick!). If it?s too thick and pasty, add a little water; if it?s too mushy, feel free to add a little more quinoa.4) Shape into something that?s about the size of falafel: bigger than a meatball, smaller than a veggie burger. Roll each in the whole wheat bread crumbs. Bake at 375 for about 30 minutes. Serve. Serve with miso gravyServing Size:?makes 20-23 croquettes
