I posted this recipe on my Instagram and got lots of questions about the recipe so I decided to do a quick post here as well so you can always come back to it to make these lean chicken carb-less meatballs anytime. A few of my friends and followers made these and LOVED them so I am glad to hear they turned out great for so many of you. Feel free to add melted cheese on top of these or make a small marinara sauce to dip in – delicious!
