cook, prep & plan
First of all, save yourself the headache of having to soak dry chickpeas. Just buy some good canned chickpeas in water.
It is just as nutritious and it is so much easier to use.
In the end, this will save you an immense amount of time of cooking and prepping.
Start by blending your chickpeas until they are smooth enough to be rolled into vegan meatballs.
But there is no need to go for 100% smooth perfection.
Keeping a little bit of chunks adds tremendously to the food sensation of a good vegan meatball, no matter which of our plant-based meatball recipes you end up using.
The water, breadcrumbs, and flax seeds will provide you with a much easier time rolling your meatballs.
The addition of flax seeds does not just add tasty, delicious nutrition but it will also help bind your vegan meatballs together with the vegan mince and all the other ingredients.While you blend the chickpeas start boiling your vegan mince, plenty of water, add the vegan mince, and maybe a small pinch of salt. Boil for 20 minutes, empty the water and add it to your chickpea smoothie with the grounded flax seeds, breadcrumbs and water.
Roll them into meatballs, and while you make your mashed potatoes and fried rice give your meatballs a good bake in the oven, or fry them lightly in a pan.
Once done, serve your plant-based meatballs with nicely cooked and fried rice, a bowl of pasta, or, as we do in this recipe, fried rice & mashed potatoes.
Another option is to have your vegan meatballs with a good salad.
Since we are going for Swedish meatballs with this vegan meal I included mashed potatoes in the nutritional information.
As always, play around with the amount of each ingredient to find your personal preference for taste, consistency, and nutritional intake.
Remember, we are trying to make healthy, nutritionally complete, high-protein, highly satiating food habits as easy and rewarding as possible for you. The easier it becomes to adhere to healthy food choices the better the outcome for health, fitness and body composition over time.

the coach perspective
But as you can see in the ingredients list you can reduce your pumpkin seeds by half and cut roughly 50 calories in one fell swoop. But, even as is, this meal still provides around 50 grams of protein in one serving, so the energy-to-protein ratio is already really good, and the satiety range still scores around 60.
Another 30 calories could be earned by reducing your sunflowers to just 5 grams. And of course, the main dish, the chickpeas which you make your Swedish meatballs from could be cut quite easily too if you wish to get down closer to the 500 calories range with this meal. You could also skip the breadcrumbs completely, which would further improve the satiety score.
I mentioned it briefly earlier on, the easier we make it to do our habits the better our adherence. This applies to food prep, cooking, eating as much as it is in play for fitness and physical activity, our home environment, sleep, rest and work.
So, iterate when you find a recipe you like making, and eating. Make small adjustments to boost satiety even further by reducing energy while maintaining or increasing protein content and micronutrients.
Cook bigger, freeze and store. Vegan meatballs are made for storing, put them in the fridge or freezer and you have easy quick meatball options for more meals and days.
Enjoy and let us know how this one tasted.

Let us talk about my own weekly sprint interval session.
What´s in a sprint interval you might wonder?
The exact answer to that will depend on the context of why you exercise. Is it but 1 tool in a larger fitness plan, is your main livelihood dependent on your sprint performance? Or is it a general health, and fitness thing? Context always matters people. Welcome to my personal sprint-interval session, how I program it, why I do a weekly sprint session, and how it fits into my larger fitness plan.

Protein Rich Potato Delight, Lentils Wrap. 65g of Protein.
This is a tasty protein rich, potato lentil wrap dream. As delightfully yummy as it is health & fitness-friendly. Providing you with the best of both worlds.
In this plant-based wrap meal, you will find deliciously fried potatoes chopped up in small cubes, spices, protein-rich lentils, and vegan mince. Our wrap also provides tomatoes, lettuce, green, yellow, and red peppers, unsweetened vegan yogurt, some mushrooms, and garlic.
65g of Protein per meal makes it a protein powerhouse, but I would recommend you double up on the ingredients if you want to serve it as dinner for two. SPC 66 to 80.
