A real food dinner shouldn’t be stressful or time consuming.
There are plenty of days when I need an easy recipe that pleases a crowd, nourishes the soul, and keeps all the bellies full. That is why I adore these easy grain-free meatballs! They are so much quicker than meatloaf and a lot more versatile! This recipe yields 30(!) 2-ounce meatballs, perfect for dinner and packable snack-able lunches. Serve them along side a simple steamed veggie with Homemade Probiotic Mayonnaise, with my Low-Carb Garlic Butter Cabbage Noodles, or on top of a beautiful bowl of Sourdough Pasta.
This same recipe will alternatively make 60(!!!) 1-ounce meatballs that are perfect as finger food for feeding partygoers. Serve them with everyone’s favorite sauce, Extra Creamy Low-Carb Ranch Dressing.
