Mini Bison-Bacon Meatballs
Recipe type: Appetizer
Prep time:
Cook time:
Total time:
Serves: 16
Ingredients
- 1.25 lb. ground bison
- ½ c. celery, finely chopped
- 1 egg
- 4 slices bacon, fat trimmed and cut into small pieces
- ¾ c. almond meal
- 1 tbsp. fresh sage, chopped
- ½ tbsp. fresh thyme, chopped
- ½ tsp. black pepper
- ½ tsp. Pink Himalayan Salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Cover an oven-safe pan or baking dish with tinfoil and lightly brush with coconut
- or olive oil.
- In a large bowl place all ingredients except for the bacon; set aside.
- In a small pan, lightly fry the bacon on low. You want the bacon to be nearly done, but not overly done, since it will still be baked. (Note: you do not need to fry the bacon in oil. Real bacon produces its own cooking grease.)
- Add the bacon to complete mixture and mix by hand once bacon has cooled a little.
- Form into mini meatballs. Place in your baking dish, and bake for about 30 minutes.
- Once they have cooled a little, poke them with an appetizer pick and serve.
Notes
When I make these meatballs, I use the leftover almond meal “pulp” from my Vanilla-Mint Almond Milk recipe. You’ll notice in the video that there is a lot of leftover pulp, and I always choose to keep and freeze this pulp until I need it for recipes like this. You can also sub in hazelnut pulp or any other nut you might use to make homemade nut milk. Makes about 16 mini meatballs.

Lemon Garlic Basil Spaghetti Squash featuring Nutiva Organic Hemp
Ready for this Lemon Garlic Basil Spaghetti Squash featuring Nutiva Organic Hemp today?
One of my most popular pins to date has been repinned almost 1,500 times.
It doesn’t involve chocolate, cake, peanut butter or ice cream (seriously, who are these people, right?!).
But it does involve fall and for that, I smile. Just let it be fall. All. Year. Long.
Fall is my favorite, so I decided to re-create the popular Lemon-Lime Cilantro Spaghetti Squash and superfood-it-up with hempseed oil and hemp seeds.
Both are a part of my new daily routine, and after Ryan loved the Hemp Kale Chips, I knew this recipe must be upgraded – stat!
8 facts you might not know about Hemp
But let’s all be honest here, no matter how good something is for us, if it doesn’t taste good, we are less likely to eat it.
You’re in luck.
Hemp is delicious!
I cannot make specific claims about anything, but as part of my Perioral Dermatitis healing, I did consume hemp internally and the hempseed oil externally on my face (whole blog post about the healing soon)! So, I’m just sayin’…..
When my mom was here visiting, I made her this meal and turned a new fan. She mentioned that upon returning back home to the homeskillet, she would be ordering hemp online. Good mama!
Now it’s your turn. Go, be, do, hemp, make.
