Ingredients

Scale

For the salmon meatballs

  • 16 oz sockeye salmon, skin removed
  • 1 cup zucchini, peeled and chopped (about 1 small zucchini)
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 3/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper (omit for AIP)

For the avocado green goddess (optional)

  • 1 medium avocado
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Using a food processor, chop the zucchini until fine. Use a cheesecloth or paper towel to squeeze out some of the excess moisture and set aside in a large bowl.

  4. Combine the salmon with the zucchini and mix in the remainder of the ingredients. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  5. Roll the salmon mixture into meatballs and place on the baking sheet.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until baked through. Set aside.
  7. Prepare the green goddess by combining all of the ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth.
  8. Serve the meatballs with the green goddess and enjoy!
