INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. lean ground beef (93% fat free)
¼ c finely chopped yellow onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 TBSP yellow mustard
1 TBSP Worcestershire sauce
½ t salt
Cooking spray
4 slices reduced fat cheese, each cut into 6 evenly-sized pieces
3 pieces of turkey bacon, cooked according to package directions, each cut into 8 evenly-sized pieces
24 dill pickle chips
4-6 large green leaf lettuce leaves, torn into 24 (total) small square shaped pieces
12 cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 400°.
Combine the beef, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and salt in a medium-sized bowl and mix well.
Form mixture into 24 small meatballs (approximately one TBSP each).
Place meatballs onto a foil-lined baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Leave oven on.
Top each meatball with a piece of cheese, then return to the oven until cheese melts, about 2-3 minutes.
Assemble the bites: on a toothpick layer a cheese-covered meatball, piece of bacon, pickle chip, piece of lettuce and a half tomato, in that order.
