Air Fryer Cheesy BBQ Meatballs

December 11, 2020 by predominantlypaleo 7 Comments

 

 I see you standing there with your fridge door open trying to figure out dinner. And that’s why these Air Fryer Cheesy BBQ Meatballs now exist!


Air Fryer Cheesy BBQ Meatballs

As some of you saw, my wife Simone from Zenbelly was here last week and it was THE BEST! We baked, we drank, we ate… naturally. But most of all, we got to just hang out with each other and snuggle puppies and not do much of anything. Y’know, because there’s a pandemic and sh*t. 

The last night she was here we scrambled to pull off a little Hanukkah something or other and here’s how it went down. 1. We made latkes from a box 2. We picked up takeout BBQ because the brisket she ordered didn’t arrive in time. But you know what? It was perfect and extra 2020 of us to throw down our festival of lights this way. 

Air Fryer Cheesy BBQ Meatballs

Monday we said goodbye to Simone and Simon and also sadly had to say goodbye to one of our beloved family members. He lost his life to Covid-19 and so we have spent this week catching our breaths and mourning from afar. Death in 2020 looks so different, without  being able to come together and mourn among family. It is bizarre and quite sad to be honest. 

I don’t want this post to be a downer, but I do want to remind everyone that the virus is real, it is a risk to us, even if we eat kale, and we need to continue being vigilant and loving thy neighbor. That means considering others and their safety, not just self. This is not debatable and is literally the foundation of every moral, every religion, and every fundamental value system. 

With that I give to you these delicious air fryer meatballs made with leftover BBQ sauce, and a gentle reminder to be kind, be thoughtful, and consider those less fortunate this season.

    These are delicious and so simple. I baked them in the oven, since my air fryer is small and I’m impatient. They still came out perfectly. Another winner from Jenn.

About

Jennifer is a wife and mother of 3 in pursuit of better health for her family.
After being gluten free for 4 years, and having a multitude of chronic health issues, she realized there was still too much processed “food” in her pantry and change was needed. Jennifer began feeding her family more meals from WHOLE foods and less from boxes. Her recipes are predominantly paleo, meaning they are free of grain, gluten, dairy, and refined sugar, but make allowances for a few treats and sweets. She believes food can be medicine when used appropriately and that a few changes now can equate to huge benefits later. Healthy food does not need to be flavorless and void of personality, which she aims to accomplish through her many recipes.
