It has been SO long since I posted a savory recipe. I love barbecue sauce, it’s probably my favorite condiment, which is why I absolutely LOVE these meatballs. They’re also very easy to make, so they’re perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. I like to make a big batch of them on Sunday, and then eat them for lunches and dinners throughout the week. They’re the perfect meal-prep recipe! You can also pair them with almost anything, for a delicious meal. We like to eat these with sweet potato fries, white rice, or a stir fry!

This recipe is also perfect when you’re craving something barbecue but don’t have the time to actually barbecue something. You can use your favorite pre-made barbecue sauce or homemade sauce for this recipe, and the results are prefect each time! For this recipe, I used Good Food for Good Paleo BBQ Sauce that I got from NaturaMarket! It’s one of my favorite barbecue sauces because it has a great taste AND I don’t have to worry about any of the ingredients in it. We also used ground chicken from our TruLocal box!
