PaleYOLO: Turkey Muffin Balls

Ingredients:

• 1.5 lb ground turkey
• 5 strips of bacon
• 1/2 lb champignon mushrooms, diced
• 1 cup of almond flour
• garlic powder, to taste
• ground pepper, to taste
• sea salt, to taste
• 2 tablespoons of ghee, melted
• 12 count muffin pan

Prep:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
• Cube and pan fry the bacon
• While your bacon is cooking, season your ground turkey with desired spices (even if they're not mentioned above)
• When the bacon is almost done cooking, throw in the diced mushrooms... like a stir fry. Don't overcook the bacon and mushrooms though! Drain the excess lard
• When the bacon and mushrooms are slightly cooled to the touch, mix in with the ground turkey
• Once that's done, let the meat relax, and nuke your ghee
• Get your almond flour in a separate bowl, mix that with the garlic powder, pepper and salt
• Ghee up your muffin pan, on the bottom and the walls
• Using a spoon, pack a layer of "breading" at the very bottom of the pan (so it's like a crust)
• Scoop the turkey mix and place in the muffin compartments... Feel free to pack it in tight cuz the meat will shrink anyhow
• Use the excess "breading mix" and sprinkle on top of the meat
• Bake for about 30 minutes

Mind you, I just made this out of nowhere so I wasn't following anyone else's recipes.

Notes:

• Next time, I would just roll up the meat in my hands into a ball, and thoroughly coat and roll around on the "bread mix" and still bake in muffin pans
• I find that using muffin pans help lock in the moisture and flavor better

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! My brother said it was a hit!
