Homemade Meatballs

Most premade meatballs and common recipes have breadcrumbs or other gluten containing ingredients. This is an easy recipe to replace that familiar home cooked meal that can still remain a favorite after going gluten free. 

Ingredients:

1lb          ground beef

1/3c       instant potato flakes

1/4c       milk or water

1T           GF soy sauce (I use La Choy)

1T           parsley, finely chopped

1              large egg

1/4c       carrots, finely grated

3/4t        salt

1/4t        pepper

1/8t        garlic powder

Directions:

Mix seasonings, add ingredients, and then mix with well into ground beef. Form beef mixture into 1 1/2” balls. Place into an oven safe baking dish and bake for 25min or until beef reaches 170 degrees. Serve with your favorite GF marinara sauce and GF pasta or steamed julienned zucchini.

Note: Some of my favorite tools are the titan peeler and julienne tool to work with zucchini as a natural GF food and low carb spaghetti substitute.
