Meatballs were husband and kid approved. Yay! So recipe is being posted. I could eat 10 of them and only have 3.1 carbs. I was making this for dinner tonight and for a party Sunday so it makes about 60 meatballs at 0.31 net carbs each. Hubby and son also asked to make them again so this one is a win for me. We ate the ones the cheese started coming out of.
2lbs ground beef
1lb mild sausage (loose meat)
1/4 cup golden flaxseed meal
1 egg
2 tsp Italian seasoning
2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce
2 TBSP Maggi seasoning (optional, not everyone can find it)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese - shredded, jar kind is fine
3 TBSP chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup finely diced onion
2 tsp crushed garlic
8 string cheese sticks
Mix everything but the meat and string cheese. Mix in meat, do not overmix/overwork. Cut the string cheese into about 60 pieces. Preheat oven to 350. Take about a 1" ball of mix and insert a piece of cheese and make sure it's thoroughly covered. Repeat until meat is gone. Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.
