Gluten Free Meatballs ~ with Oatmeal!

I have been making mini gluten-free meatballs for quite some time now and they are always a hit! One of my favorite food compliments is when the family won’t stop eating what I make. I have to kick them out of the kitchen to keep from eating all of these…and someone still manages to walk out with one in their mouth.

Another favorite compliment…The happy food dance that Little Miss does when she eats them. Sometimes she even sings a little yummy song.

Another compliment…the fact that Mr. Monster will eat these before he eats the noodles…his noodles! That’s some strong competition for a toddler.

These simple meatballs can be whipped up in practically no time, and they pair perfectly with my Grandma’s spaghetti sauce recipe.
