Description

Savory Keto Greek Meatballs made with ground meat and fresh herbs for a low-carb twist on a Mediterranean classic.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef or lamb
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for frying

  2. Mix until well combined.
  3. Shape the mixture into small meatballs.
  4. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
