As per usual, I was searching on Pinterest for new recipes that would work for her diet and mine when I stumbled upon a recipe for Butternut Breakfast Bites. No flour, no cheese!!
Butternut Breakfast Bites
Time: 30 minutes
Serves: 4-5
Ingredients:
1 lb ground lamb (or pork or beef) *I chose pork this time around.
1 C cooked butternut squash-mashed (Trader Joes has it already cut up ready to microwave)
10 mint leaves (if using lamb) or coriander/cilantro (with beef or pork)-finely chopped
3 TBS fresh parsley-finely chopped
1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp sea salt
Method:
Preheat oven to 400F/200C
Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well with your hands until spices and butternut squash are thoroughly mixed through the meat.
Using a small cookie scoop, or your hands, roll mixture into 1 1/2 inch balls and place into mini muffin tins.
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown on the edges and meat is no longer pink in the middle. (I ended up cooking for approx. 30 minutes-will depend on oven and pan you are using).
Hubby tried the first one hot out of the oven and declared, "these won't last long." Hmmm...might need to stash a few with my Pumpkin Spice Almonds.

Yum! As I sit here eating my boring 12-grain toast, I wish I had a couple of those bites.
These look healthy and delicious for any diet! I might try with turkey sausage!
Looks yummy!
I love butternut squash! These look packable, too.
Oh these will be perfect for my daughter. I had no idea they made a gluten free bisquick. You're a wealth of knowledge.
That must be so hard finding recipes that will work for y'all. When I glance at the ingredients on products, it seems like everything has gluten in it. It's hard to avoid it. These look amazing though! We love sausage balls around here. And I love how good the house smells when they're in the oven. :)
