These moist and delish keto meatballs made with Parmesan cheese and flaxseed meal are perfect for a weeknight dinner. To keep it low carb, use low-carb tomato sauce or, even better, a homemade marinara sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 (14 ounce) can tomato sauce
Directions
Step 1
Combine ground beef, egg, Parmesan cheese, flaxseed, oregano, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; mix with your hands until well combined. Roll mixture into golf ball-size meatballs.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add meatballs to the skillet; cook in hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes on each side. Pour tomato sauce over meatballs; bring to a simmer and cook until meatballs are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball should read at least 160 degrees F (72 degrees F).
