The time has finally come!! I have made these a few times and once posted the recipe on my snap chat (kelsmcgins), but for some reason hadn’t posted it here! When I decided to make Zucchini Pad Thai I thought these bad boys would go perfectly on top.
This sauce is BONKERS good too. It’s a lot like the sauce I used in my Curry Almond Butter Chicken Salad! How could coconut oil, almond butter and curry powder not be amazing together? Healthy fats for the win!
On another note. I finally bought the Minimalist Baker’s food photography school! It is one of those purchases I have been dying to make and am so glad I did. Like those garnishes? I am about to garnish this WHOLE BLOG like mad. It just makes everything more fun right? Like WOW. She threw stuff all over those meatballs like she doesn’t even care about that burlap placemat. WHAT A BALLER!
You thought that right? No? Hmmm…
GARNISH!!! And sauce drizzle. I am a sucker for a good drizzle.
These zoodles though!!
Pin it!!

Could you use almond flour instead? It’s what I already have in my pantry.. 🙂
Yes for sure!
Made this recipe and followed it to a “t.” Made it alongside the zucchini pad thai and it is definitely going to be a family favorite. We’re on the Whole30 now, but will continue making it as we move into our “food freedom.” Also a great dish if you’re entertaining and others are not following the diet. Lots of great, bold flavors. Don’t feel like we’re missing out on anything with this dish!
That is so awesome!! Thanks!!
Can these meatballs be frozen and eaten at a later time??
Yes definitely!
