Copycat Veggie Balls
Since the Covid lockdown, I haven't been able to go to IKEA® where they serve delicious veggie balls. So in the true self-assemble spirit that makes it so famous, I set out to make a clone. Mine are even better. The original has pea protein and kale, which I find expensive and gross, respectively. I made some changes to make it easier on the wallet and taste buds, then bake them. Some assembly required. Serve bowl-style with rice and your favorite sauce.

Cook's Notes:
If you make them smaller, bake for less time, about 15 to 20 minutes.
The original ingredients use kale instead of spinach. You could also use broccoli rabe, if desired. The original version uses pea protein and chickpea flour. The lentil flour is a personal preference. You can use any bean flour.
If you want to freeze them, cook for 20 minutes until firm, but not browned. Cool completely before freezing in a freezer-safe container. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes from their frozen state.
