Paleo Meatballs


Ok you guys these meatballs are so good that I can't believe I actually cooked them! They are 100% paleo and SO easy and quick to make. Enjoy! This recipe makes about 4 servings.

1 lb. ground beef
1/4 c. almond meal/flour
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 egg
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. parsley
1 tsp. cumin
cayenne pepper-->easy does it with the cayenne pepper!
kosher salt-->dash
ground pepper
EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)


~Whisk egg, then add all above ingredients except EVOO and mix it well with your hands.
~Mold mixture into meatballs--I make them about 1.5 in in diameter, but you can make whatever size you want!
~Pour a couple tablespoons of EVOO into frying pan (don't overdo it, you don't need to drown the meat)
~Pan fry meatballs about 10 minutes or so until thoroughly cooked.
~Heat up your favorite marinara sauce (I used Cucina Antica bc it has all natural ingredients and no added sugar) in a saucepan on the stove and add cooked meatballs for a minute on simmer.
~Serve over spaghetti squash
