Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup Grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour ((or sunflower seed meal for nut-free))
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
3/4 tsp Sea salt
1/2 tsp Black pepper
1/4 cup Unsweetened coconut milk beverage ((can also use almond milk or heavy cream))
3 tbsp Onion ((grated))
1 large Egg
3 cloves Garlic ((minced))
2 tbsp Fresh parsley ((chopped))
1 lb Ground beef
3/4 cup Marinara sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil (grease if using foil).
  • In a large bowl, stir together the grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, Italian seasoning, sea salt, and black pepper.
  • Whisk in the milk, grated onion, egg, garlic, and fresh parsley. Let the mixture sit for a couple of minutes.
  • Mix in the ground beef using your hands, until just incorporated. (Don't over-mix to avoid tough meatballs.)
  • Form the mixture into 1 in (2.5 cm) balls and place on the lined baking sheet. (A small cookie scoop this size works well for this. If using your hands, use a gentle touch and don't pack the meatballs too tightly.)
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the meatballs are barely done. (If you want them more golden, you can place them under the broiler for a couple of minutes.)
  • Top each meatball with marinara sauce. Return to the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes, until the sauce is hot and meatballs are cooked through. Garnish with additional fresh parsley.

KETO TUSCAN MEATBALLS

I know what you must be thinking, "no eggs!?" When I first came up with this recipe, I was out of eggs, and it turned out just fine. These meatballs hold together very well due to the ground up onions and cheese, making them easy to handle in the pan. Garnish with basil and serve over zoodles, spaghetti squash, riced cauliflower, or enjoy as is.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup French-fried onions, finely crushed
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ pound ground beef

1 (10 ounce) package fresh spinach
½ cup heavy cream
½ cup water
