Baked Salmon Meatballs With Creamy Avocado Sauce

January 29, 2019

Here is a recipe that I used for a client recently for lunch but this would also be great as a snack or an appetizer. I was a little skeptical but pleasantly surprised! You can make them bite size for a party or a little larger if you are using for a meal. Really yummy and the avocado cream with the chipotle seasoning adds a little smokey flavor with depth. For bite size you do not even need a dollop of the sauce. All you really need is a teaspoon of the sauce. Try this! You will be delighted you did. Serve them at your Super Bowl party for a healthy snack!!
