Steps:
- Place oats and pecans in a blender or food processor and process until finely ground.
- Remove to a large bowl.
- Add garlic, sage, oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice to bowl.
- Process tofu and water in blender (or processor) until smooth.
- Add to bowl with other ingredients and stir until mixture holds firmly together.
- Shape into 1.
- 5 inch balls.
- Heat a little bit of olive oil in a non-stick skillet and skillet fry balls until reaching the desired level of brownness on all sides.
- Adding more oil if needed.
- Remove to brown bags or newspaper covered paper towels.
- Place in a baking sheet and bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until done in the middle.
- I sometimes skip this step and just flatten the balls slightly, so they will cook well on top of the stove.
- Yields about 16 balls.
- Serve over pasta cooked just al dente with some nice tomato sauce or as an appetizer.
