Chicken Matzo Ball Soup

Chicken Matzo Ball Soup

I grew up making Matzo Ball Soup along side my mom. As teenager I was Vegetarian so we would make two separate pots side by side and share the Matzo Balls.

As a Vegan, Matzo Balls were something I thought I wouldn’t be able to veganize. Some of my earlier attempts were “passable” because I just really wanted them! Thanks to innovative companies such Follow Your Heart & Just Egg making Vegan Eggs that are great in so many recipes I was able to finally make delicious Matzo Balls.
