I think it is safe to say that I am turning into a meatball! Haha The obsession is getting a little out of control, but when you can create easy one dish recipes with meatballs that are healthy, quick and meal prep friendly it’s a big win in my book!

These Paleo Thai Almond Butter Turkey meatballs turn out juicy, tender and full of flavor! They are super simple yet make your taste buds say, “WOW” when you start eating! I will be honest; I even surprised myself with this one!

I used lean ground turkey breast to make these, but you could easily swap in ground beef, ground chicken or even try a veggie meatball version! Just make sure to adjust the cooking time. These meatballs cook quick (WIN!), so be mindful of the time!

Don’t you just want to eat that almond butter sauce!! I ended up making a mason jar of just the almond butter sauce and have been using it on chicken and shrimp dishes. Thai chicken and shrimp kabobs? Yup! They happened and are so goo!  It works perfectly on salads too!
