I am so saving this recipe! I have to try it out!. I love to replace bread crumbs with almond meal. Such a good idea! Thank you.

Thank you so much for this recipe! I just made 48 meatballs and 16 mini meatloaves with ground beef, turkey, and italian sausage. I oven roasted red bell peppers, onions, elephant ear garlic and pureed in food processor. Shredded zucchini and spinach. Mixed all that with 3 eggs and almond flour, put in cupcake wrappers, and cooked them. They smell heavenly, look delicious, and I am so looking forward to eating these, tonight and this week! I have also made a pot of pasta sauce using the same roasted veggies and sun dried tomatoes and am making faux spaghetti (cauliflower rice basically) to put them over. Thank you!!!

I made these with what I had on hand (spinach, zucchini, and sun-dried tomatoes) – delicious, especially with a little sauce! I think they taste even better cold. Thanks for the many creative ideas. I am a teacher and it’s nice to be able to cram as much nutrition as possible into quick bites — lunchtime flies fast!

YUM! I made in a muffin tin (sadly forgot to oil first, so some of my meatballs were crumbles which I then added to eggs). Really delicious and satisfying. I made a homemade marinara sauce with overripe tomatoes, onions, garlic and basil and served with spaghetti squash. Maybe not quite my MIL’s Italian meatballs but yummy and much better for me!

I have not froze these before but if I were going to I would cook them first and then defrost and reheat in the oven when needed. : )

The first batch is in the oven and is smelling delicious! Can’t wait to try these! Quick question for you… have you frozen these and if so, did you do so before or after you baked them?

I just used regular ground turkey. : ) So glad you are enjoying the blog and book, thank you!

Sarah – I am enjoying your blog and cookbook. Made these meatballs tonight, and just have a question for you. Did you use regular ground turkey or turkey breast? Although delicious, they looked quite different from yours in the picture.

Thanks for your help!

Just made these! I’m cooking for myself so I just used a pound of grass-fed beef and no turkey (next time). I didn’t have any peppers so I used some chopped onions. I wanted to add chopped celery but I forgot. Ha! Just one little note: I baked it for an hour and it still wasn’t done. So I took the foil off and baked another 15 mins or so. They were delicious!! Thanks!

I made these for dinner tonight and served them with spaghetti squash. My family, including all 3 kids, loved them! My 9 year old asked to have the leftovers packed for her lunch tomorrow. Thank you for the recipe- this one will become a staple!

the meatballs are wonderful.. i used 93 % lean beef and added cooked chopped bacon from the fridge & feta cheese instead of salt. and also some finely chopped green olives. absolutely fantastic. i put a homemade chili sauce on top( red peppers, tomatoes & onions cooked down to nothing) . nothing else was needed thanks I will be a follower of your site!
