My Favorite Meatballs

When I was doing my 21 day sugar detox, one of the recipes in the meal plan/cookbook was Asian Style Meatballs. I made them the during dinner one night the first week of the detox and both Dan and I devoured the entire pan. They are so good!

I’ve since added them to my dinner rotation and we have them once every couple weeks. They are so easy to make and quick, which makes them a go-to in my household. Anytime I make them, I double the batch so that I can freeze some for future dinners. I love foods that I can freeze for future use. I just pop a few into the microwave right from the freezer and you have an instant meal. Even the kids like them!

When I make them, I double the batch and use 1/2 ground pork and 1/2 ground turkey. The flavors are so good together and the pork makes them juicy while the turkey makes them a little leaner. I usually serve them with a zucchini noodle salad (check out my Zoodles & Noodles Pinterest Board for recipe ideas) or just steamed white rice. I personally don’t use a dipping sauce because I think the flavors alone are so good that you don’t need anything extra. An extra bonus is that not only are these meatballs 21 day sugar detox compliant, but egg-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, grain-free and gluten-free. So they are great for a party appetizer or dinner party since even people on dietary restrictions can eat them.

The recipe is published on The 21 day sugar detox recipe page on the Balanced Bites website. There are so many great recipes posted, I suggest trying them out!
