When your kids want Swedish Meatballs, make them grain-free with almond flour. Plus, almond flour adds health protein.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs grass-fed ground beef
  • 1 cup organic chicken broth
  • 1 organic egg
  • 1 organic egg yolk
  • 1/4 cup almond meal
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/4 large onion, grated
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp fresh ground nutmeg (hint: keep them in the freezer and grate them with a microplane)

Instructions

  1. Mix all ingredients well and shape into 1″ balls.
  2. Fry in batches (don’t crowd the pan) in a non-toxic skillet until almost cooked through.
  3. After all batches are browned, transfer them all back into the skillet.
  4. Add 1 cup (or more if desired) of organic chicken broth.
  5. Finish cooking and serve warm.
  6. To freeze, line a large ziploc bag with parchment paper and place meatballs inside.
  7. To re-heat, let thaw slightly and transfer to a skillet to reheat.
  8. You can add additional organic stock if it is not “saucy” enough or to keep the meatballs from drying out.
