    • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs

    • 1 egg, lightly beaten

    • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

    • 1 tsp garlic powder

    • 1/2 tsp paprika

    • Salt and pepper to taste

    • 1 tbsp olive oil (for baking)

    For the Avocado Sauce:

    1. 1 ripe avocado

    2. 1/4 cup sour cream

    3. 1 tbsp lemon juice

    4. 1 clove garlic, minced

    5. Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • Make the Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the chopped salmon, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

  • Shape the Meatballs: Form the mixture into small meatballs and place them on a greased baking sheet. Drizzle the meatballs with olive oil.

  • Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the meatballs are firm and fully cooked through.

  • Prepare the Avocado Sauce: While the meatballs are baking, prepare the sauce by blending the avocado, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.

 

  • Serve: Once the meatballs are cooked, serve them with a generous drizzle of the creamy avocado sauce on top

Notes

  • If you prefer a spicier sauce, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some chopped jalapeños to the avocado sauce.
