EASY Bacon Cheeseburger Meatballs

These tender meatballs are packed with smokey bacon and cheese, making them taste like a cheeseburger without the bun. So easy they are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner! 


Meatballs are always a hit at our house. I usually make them with sauce and spaghetti, but this recipe totally caught my eye a few years back, so I decided to give it a try. My kids LOVE cheeseburgers, so I knew they would totally be into these meatballs. 

These meatballs are super good! I love the sweet onion flavour, paired with the smokey bacon and beef. The ketchup and Dijon mustard bring it all together, to make them taste like an actual cheeseburger. They are nice and tender and the cheese just gets all bubbly and crisp on the outside. I served mine with mashed potatoes with gravy, and broccoli. I also garnished them with pickles and tomatoes, because that's how we like to dress our burgers. The kids said they were delicious and they really didn't miss the bun at all!


Bacon Cheeseburger Meatballs

1 small onion, chopped
6 slices bacon, chopped
1 lb lean ground beef
¼ cup almond meal (almond flour)
2/3 C cheddar cheese, shredded
2 Tbs ketchup
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 egg
Salt & pepper

In a large non stick skillet, cook the onion and bacon over medium heat, until bacon is crispy and onions begin to caramelise; about 10-15 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon mixture from skillet, to a paper towel lined plate. Let cool.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, almond flour, cheese, egg, ketchup, mustard, salt, pepper and cooled bacon mixture. Form ground beef mixture into 15 equal sized meatballs (a bit larger than a golf ball) and place in a 9x13 inch baking dish. 

Bake in preheated oven for 18-20 minutes; until cooked through. Allow the meatballs to set 5 minutes before serving.

PIN IT !!!

I am sharing this recipe with these linky parties!

    I love this idea! Have you ever tried putting a cubed piece of cheese in the center of the meatballs so the cheese is melty when you bite into the meatball?

No Yeast Old Fashion Cinnamon Rolls

 These delicious cinnamon sticky rolls have been in my family for over 40 yrs. No yeast is required, so you can whip up a batch of these in no time. Still tender, sticky sweet and delicious! Ever since I can remember Mom would make these as a special treat. It wasn't too often, but every once in a while, we'd come home to these no yeast cinnamon rolls, as an after school snack. Growing up, this is what I thought cinnamon rolls were. I wasn't aware that there was a yeast version of cinnamon rolls. As much as I LOVE the yeast version, this no yeast version seems to make an appearance more frequently here at home.  Since there is no yeast in the dough, it does not need to rise for 30 minutes before being rolled out and baked. When I worked in the retirement home the residents were always excited when I made these cinnamon rolls. They said it reminded them of their childhood. It was amazing seeing how happy a simple recipe could make them. I don't make these very often and ...

50+ Creative Cottage Meal Ideas

When the warm weather hits many of us head to the cottage, to enjoy the sunshine and time near the water. Instead of always packing up burgers and hot dogs, I've rounded up over 50 creative meal ideas for delicious breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Ever since I was little my family always enjoyed a few weeks camping at a near by provincial park, during the summer months. When us kids, became older and moved away, Mom and Dad bought a trailer which remained parked at a location, so we would often go and visit for a few weeks then too. My mom has always been an amazing cook and with her outside kitchen often made our family favourites, even at camp. Now that my SO and his family have a cottage, we are frequently there for most of the summer. Hamburgers and Hot Dogs seem to be our go to, so I wanted to collect new creative meals perfect to make while camping, or at the cottage.  Breakfast Recipes Healthy Banana Milkshake Thick, creamy banana milkshake made without ice cream, dairy, and...

Crockpot Moose Stew

Tender wild moose, is slow cooked all day with potatoes, peas, carrots and herbs, resulting in a hearty and delicious cold weather dish. I can say that I've missed blogging. I've missed creating recipes, taking photographs and sharing them with you. Sometimes life gets in the way, which is the case here. Five years ago my life took a turn I never thought it would. I suddenly found myself as a single mom, who suddenly had to find a job and be both mom and dad to my children. That transition, along with trying to heal a hurt and broken heart, was too much to focus on and things like my blog fell to the wayside. They say things in your life happen for a reason and that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Well let me tell you, I was able to build myself back up and show my children that their mom is a strong and determined woman that will always be there for them, even when she feels defeated. Five years later, I can proudly say that I am doing better then I have in a lon...
