For a vegan option, substitute the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water, let sit for 5 minutes to thicken). If the mixture is too wet, add more bread crumbs. If it's too dry, add a tablespoon of water or vegetable broth at a time until the desired consistency is reached. Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for added flavor.
