- No Hexane
Most poultry producers use hexane-processed soybeans as a cheap source of chicken feed. But hexane pollutes the air and environment. We keep chemicals out of our feed.
- No DDGS
DDGS is a protein alternative producers can get at a lower cost than corn. Antibiotics are used to control bacteria in the fermentation process. Some antibiotics remain in the DDGS. We use only corn and soybeans for protein. Period.
- 100% Air Chilled
Our air chill method eliminates the need for chilled chlorinated water that most producers use, which ends up in your chicken.
- No Hormones
This product is free from artificial growth hormones.
- No Junk
This product is made with no fillers, no preservatives and no artificial flavors—in other words, no junk.
- No Antibiotics
Bell & Evans is the first company to raise 100% of our flocks without antibiotics—from the egg throughout the chicken’s entire lifespan.

These are absolutely delicious. Even my “Mr. Picky” husband loved them. He said they were yummy even without sauce. High praise from him when he asks me to always have some in the freezer.
We love these meatballs. I add fra diablo sauce to & parm to serve. I’m pretty picky when it comes to chicken and was very pleasantly surprised when I ate them.
Amaze-balls meatballs. LOVE THEM.
I read the ingredients and there is wheat flour in them. However, the allergen statement only lists soy and milk !!!!!
Hi Mary! The ingredient statement on the box reads: “ALLERGEN INFORMATION: Contains Wheat, Milk and Eggs” There was a typo on our website that incorrectly stated “Contains soy and milk”. This has been corrected.
This is the first time I have bought this product, scrumptious! It is good accompanied by spaghetti with garlic and basil and a quick parmesan sauce. I mixed chicken cream (from a creamy chicken and dumplings soup) with salt and pepper and parmesan cheese. Perfect pairing.
One word: Amazing. Flavor, texture, size and package quality are exactly what I want. I have been a devoted Bell&Evan’s consumer for over 15 years. They really hit a home-run with the meatballs.
Great tasting! I’m picky about frozen foods but these were so good!
My 3 year old wants these for dinner every night. Unfortunately the Whole Foods markets in our area are the only retailers who carry them and they have recently disappeared from all the shelves. It has been weeks and my boy is so sad. We are in Los Angeles. Please send me some Parmesan coated Chicken Meatballs for my boy!!
We are also on the west side of Los Angeles and these meatballs have completely disappeared from all the Whole Foods on the west side.
These are so delicious!! Air fryer leaves it super crispy
These are very good!
(I like to dip them in some remoulade.)
It’s the only “healthy” thing my daughter eats but I wish you wouldn’t add the sugar. Completely unnecessary.
Hi Alicja, the sugar that is included in the ingredient statement is part of the breading coating for the meatball. The small amount used is less than 1% of the finished product and is necessary for the yeast to function as leavening in the breadcrumbs.
