Our Favorite Meatball Recipes {and a Food Truck Fantasy}

Is it just me or do you agree that Meatballs are a Fabulously FUN Food? 

I think if I were going to have a Food Truck (and you know we’ve all secretly wanted to own a food truck), I’d make it all about the meatballs ~ Mobile Meatballs (ooo or maybe Meatball Madness). 

The possibilities are endless. 

Of course we’d serve traditional Italian Meatballs. The the kind I dream of…soft and bursting with garlic and herb flavors…bathed in a tomato sauce.

Turkey Meatballs would be delicious served bowl style with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy.

I have a hunch that our Meatball Beef & Broccoli will be a Food Truck top seller!!

Kefta Mkaouara with Moroccan Spicy Meatballs would bring an international flair to our offering.

We’ll serve Maryland Crab Cake Balls too! Everything we love about a Crab Cake rolled into bite-sized nuggets. 

We would certainly offer Swedish Meatballs in a warm gravy served over egg noodles with a hint of nutmeg smiling through.

Kalua Pork Meatball Sliders are addicting bites of juicy flavor!

My Mobile Meatball Food Truck would offer multiple serving options.  You could pile your meatballs of choice on a salad, load them in a pita pocket, stack them on a stick, ladle over hearty grains, or serve them slider style like these Chicken Parmesan Meatball Sliders.

Thanksgiving Dinner Party Meatballs would be a hit all year round.  Who doesn’t love the comfort of a holiday meal delivered in tasty bite-sized meatballs?!!

Looking for fresh bright flavors? Chicken Piccata Meatballs are loaded with aromatics. Comfort food without the guilt!

Our signature Turkey Burger Meatballs, oh so moist with a subtle sweet BBQ flavor, would be a featured item.

We could have an entire food truck menu built around Philly Cheesesteak Meatballs. We could serve them on a hoagie roll or as a rice bowl or just piled high smothered in Provolone Cheese Sauce.

Greek Chicken Meatballs bursting with Mediterranean flavors would be on regular rotation!

Mini Vietnamese Banh Mi Bites, loaded with aromatics, have definitely earned a spot on the food truck fantasy!!

Our Salisbury Steak Meatballs served on a bed of rice with Mushroom Gravy would be a stick to your ribs favorite for certain.

We’d serve our Chicken Satay Meatballs as lettuce wraps or rice bowls with a side of Peanut Dipping Sauce. The flavors in this one will keep them coming back for more.

Let’s not forget Buffalo Chicken Meatballs with hot wing sauce and North African Lamb Meatballs with a cilantro mint sauce.

Jamaican Jerk Meatballs are packed with so much flavor and pair perfectly with a nice bowl of Red Beans & Rice!

Let me tell you, these Chicken Marsala Meatballs will have them lining up around the block. So tender and savory.

You betcha we’ll be serving French Toast Breakfast Meatballs from our Food Truck!

When our Fantasy Food Truck pulls up to the county fair, Spaghetti & Meatballs on a Stick are going to draw a crowd!!

In the cooler months, our meatballs would find their way into big bowls of soup.  We’d have Lemon, Tortellini & Meatball Soup.

Italian Bean Soup with Mini-Meatballs would be a lunchtime favorite.

These rice and herb packed meatballs will find their way into steamy bowls of Albóndigas Soup {Mexican Meatball Soup}.

It’s the meatballs after all that completely make Italian Wedding Soup.

And rounding out our offerings would be these amazing Asian Salmon Meatballs with just the right balance of fresh cilantro and ginger served with a sesame soy honey ginger dipping sauce.  Now who’s with me on this one?!!
