3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup avocado oil
3 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon flax seeds + 3 tablespoons water OR equivalent 1 egg of vegan egg replacer
Directions

Bring a large pot to medium heat. Add olive oil. Once hot, add the quartered onion. Once golden, add minced garlic. Once fragrant, add carrots and celery. Stir.

In a bowl, mix together bouillon and 3 tbsp warm water. Whisk to combine then add to the pot, using a wooden spoon to stir, making sure nothing sticks to the bottom.
-
Add remaining garlic, bay leaves, dried oregano, dried, parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir.
-
Add water until the pot is full.

Allow to simmer as you prepare the matzo balls. In a small bowl, combine flax seeds and 3 tbsp water. Let sit for 10 minutes.

Shape them into small, golf-ball-sized rounds using wet hands (to prevent sticking). Place on a lined baking tray until ready to prepare.

Use a slotted spoon to carefully add matzo balls to the pot of soup (for flavor). Let boil for 30-40 minutes, or until matzo balls have floated to the surface.
