Meatballs made with eggplant? What a great idea! Serve them on a bed of zucchini noodles or with your favorite bean pasta.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon chia seeds
3 tablespoons water
1/4 cup low sodium or no-salt-added vegetable broth, or more as needed
1 small onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 medium unpeeled eggplant, chopped
1 1/2 cups cooked or 1 (15 ounce) can low sodium or no-salt-added chickpeas, drained
1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley
1/4 cup unfortified nutritional yeast
1 cup whole wheat panko or breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
pinch red chili flakes, or to taste
2 cups low sodium or no-salt-added pasta sauce
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Whisk the chia seeds and water together in a small bowl and let sit for at least 10 minutes.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable broth in a medium skillet and saute the onion and garlic for five minutes or until the onion is translucent.
4. Add the eggplant and continue cooking for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until eggplant is soft, stirring occasionally and adding additional vegetable broth as needed to prevent burning.
5. Place the eggplant mixture in a mixing bowl and stir in the chia mixture, chickpeas and parsley.
6. Place in a food processor and pulse until chopped but not pureed.
7. Return to the bowl and stir in nutritional yeast, panko, oregano, basil and red chili flakes.

Our business was struggling…The program showed me how to get my voice out in a bigger way. Now I’ve been featured on popular TV shows, in national magazines and have a worldwide following of fans. … I’m thankful I took the Juice Guru Certification Program because it was the fuel that grew my business (and celebrity) to a level I never imagined before.

I had just graduated from IIN as a general Health Coach. But after graduation I was lost as to how to start my Health Coaching business. I finally realized the answer was to focus my business around juicing. And Juice Guru Institute gave me the education and certification I need for others to take me seriously and the programs and tools to launch my practice.

My Juice Therapy Certification gave me the confidence to grow my business. What started as a side hustle has become my full-time business with significant growth since opening our new space (currently 400% sales growth over last year). Juice leads our sales and is the core of our brand.

My CJT training continues to be one of the best investments in my career as a health coach – opening doors to new opportunities. Juicing is now the foundation of my 1-on-1 health coaching programs. I also host seasonal group juice cleanses, helping people interested in juice fasting do so safely and effectively. And due to my Juice Guru juice therapist certification, I was able to publish my first book.

I took the Juice Guru Certification program and I’m so glad I did. I gained the confidence, knowledge and blueprints that I needed to open my juice bar and serve my clients in a more health and wellness-based way. I learned how to properly juice, the enormous benefits of incorporating it into your daily diet, and the powerful healing that you can achieve.
