These delicious meatball alternatives are great with pasta and tomato sauce. They are gluten-free and sugar-free and appropriate for the 21 day Quantum Wellness Cleanse. They are a bit fragile so be careful when removing them from the pan. This recipe is only slightly adapted from the Post Punk Kitchen website.
