FAQ:
Q: Can I make these ahead of time?
A: Yes! You can prepare the meatballs and wrap them in bacon, then refrigerate until ready to cook. Just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time if baking from chilled.
Q: Can I use regular bacon instead of turkey bacon?
A: Yes, regular bacon will work just as well. It may be a bit greasier, so you may need to drain the bombs after cooking.
