BBQ Turkey Meatballs


Looking for a game day appetizer or even a holiday appetizer?? Try these little meatballs. They are quick and easy to make plus contain less fat and sugar than typical BBQ meatballs. Using a homemade BBQ sauce is also a good switch if you are watching your nutrition. This makes about 24 meatballs


1 lb ground turkey
1/3 cup GF bread crumbs
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic, minced
½ tsp sea salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp cumin
1 cup BBQ sauce
  • In a large bowl, combine turkey, bread crumbs, paprika, garlic, salt, pepper and cumin. Using your hands, mix together until ingredients are well combined. U
  • sing a cookie scoop, scoop meat mixture into balls and place into a greased muffin tin. This helps the meatballs keep their shape and also makes it pretty easy.
  • Bake meatballs at 350°F for about 20 minutes or until meat is cooked through. In a large saucepan, combine cooked meatballs and BBQ sauce and cook for about 10 minutes. You can also but the sauce and cooked meatballs in a crock pot to keep warm if serving for a large group.
