Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with olive oil or cooking spray.
Prepare the Salmon Meatballs:
In a large bowl, combine the finely chopped or ground salmon, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, beaten egg, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Form the Meatballs:
Use your hands or a cookie scoop to form the mixture into small meatballs (about 1 ½ inches in diameter) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the tops of the meatballs with olive oil.
Bake the Meatballs:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and golden on top.
Prepare the Creamy Avocado Sauce:
While the meatballs are baking, combine the avocado, Greek yogurt, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor.
Blend until smooth, adding a little water if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Drizzle the creamy avocado sauce over the baked salmon meatballs and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
