Bacon Wrapped Turkey Meatballs
I am a manly man and try to lighten up our meals whenever possible. Meatballs are one meal that as my wife says can become “skinny” these are skinny meatballs with the added manly food bacon. We bake them, and then half way through we remove any fat from the muffin tin. You can also use turkey bacon, but I prefer real bacon, the flavor from the fat gives your turkey meatballs a better flavor.
Another great way to skinny up these meatballs are adding extra healthy ingredients into the mix. Instead of your regular bread crumbs try a sprouted whole wheat bread. Soak it in milk then just crumble it into your mixture. The sprouted wheat brand we use is Vegan and has 5 grams of protein. We hope you enjoy.
