These Turkey meatballs are so tasty! I love making them in the air fryer because they cook faster and I don’t have to deal with frying them in a pan or have the oven on to cook them. I decided to give them a fun spin by brushing them with my Spicy ketchup. If you missed it, it was my last post. My kids love meatballs and I am always looking for different ways to make them for them. The ketchup gave them a beautiful color and taste.
I made these meatballs smaller than my regular meatballs because I wanted them to be perfect for little hands. Bite size food is always so fun, and a plus when you get to dip it in homemade ketchup and know that everything your kids are eating is wholesome and delicious!
These meatballs are Paleo and Whole30 compliant. Gluten and Sugar Free and 100% Delicious.
