If you follow my blog then you are aware of my love of curry. Any type of curry, Japanese, Indian, Thai, Swedish or any other nationality. Yes, Sweden does use and make a mild curry. But, that is a story for another time. Since I absolutely adore everything curry I decide to add it to my new love of ground buffalo.
Why, ground buffalo? Because of a number of nutritional benefits. For more information see my blog post, Buffalo Meat Review Information.

Why Eat Buffalo Curry Meatballs
What makes these meatballs truly rich special is how rich, slightly sweet the undertones of the ground buffalo/bison pair with bold aromatic spice of curry. Using buffalo offers a nutritional upgrade. It’s leaner than beef, loaded with high quality protein, and packed with iron and zinc, making it a functional food that keeps you satisfied without feeling heavy. Because buffalo is naturally tender, it holds it shape perfectly. Which results in a nutrient dense meal that is keto friendly.
Personal Notes:
By the way, I am always trying to get my family to eat more vegetables, therefore, I added shredded carrots to the meat. Since the carrots are optional feel free to leave them out.
Would you believe I am still suffering from insomnia? For those of you who also suffer from insomnia, I feel you. I am only getting 3 to 4 hours of sleep a night. I would appreciate any prayers or good vibes being sent my way. Thanks so much from the bottom of my heart.
Indeed two and a half pounds made two meals. In fact, I cooked half and froze half and now I have a meal ready to go for when I don’t feel good or am in a hurry. Needless to say they can also be frozen. Once frozen place them into a freezer bag. To cook from frozen preheat to 400 F and bake for 25 – 30 minutes. Many make their own curry but it can also be bought.
