Baked Salmon Meatballs with Creamy Avocado Sauce

Serve with a fresh salad, steamed veggies, or quinoa for a balanced meal.

Leftover meatballs can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.

The avocado sauce is best fresh but can be stored in the fridge for 1 day in a sealed container (press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent browning).

Variations
Add a pinch of chili flakes or cayenne to the meatballs for some heat.

Use lime juice instead of lemon in the avocado sauce for a different citrus note.

Mix some grated Parmesan or feta cheese into the meatball mixture for extra flavor.
