Paleo Breakfast Meatballs and Eggs

I came across this breakfast meatball recipe and decided it was probably time to try a breakfast recipe that wasn't in the shape of a muffin. These meatballs were extremely easy to prepare and make, especially since I threw the bell pepper and spinach in the food processor. I make these breakfast recipes for my mom and she is not a fan of eating her greens, so the smaller the vegetables are the better. I made this recipe into 21 tiny meatballs and baked them for 20 minutes with an additional 5 minutes under the broiler. I also taste-tested one of the meatballs and thought they were delicious! I paired the meatballs with an egg that was scrambled with a little bit of culinary coconut milk​ and used this random Silicone Egg Ring​ I found to make the egg into a perfect circle. That part is totally not necessary, I just wanted to try it out. If you are looking to switch up your breakfast routine then this is a great recipe to try out!

Paleo Breakfast Meatballs 
Ingredients:
  • 1 lb. lean ground turkey 
  • ½ of medium red bell pepper, diced in a blender
  • ¼ cup fresh spinach leaves, roughly chopped
  • ½ tsp sage
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, for drizzle
  • salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 325 F. Prepare a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  2. Place red bell pepper in a blender and pulse several times until it's diced finely. It should be somewhat liquidly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine turkey breast, garlic powder, sage, salt, pepper, red bell pepper and chopped spinach with your hands.
  4. Roll the mixture into 16 bite-sized balls. A small ice cream scoop will help with this.
  5. Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil.
  6. Bake at 325 F 10 minutes then using a tongs flip the balls cooking another 10 minutes until slightly browned.
  7. Remove from the oven. Serve immediately or cool completely before storing in the fridge.

​Notes
*Any ground meat would work with this recipe. 
**If you use a higher fat meat, you can omit the extra virgin olive oil.
