I've been buying a lot of ground beef lately. Other cuts are just too expensive right now. So I need to find things to make that aren't the same everyday! Burgers just won't cut it. I created some meatballs, that are really good and would be paleo friendly but they do contain parmesan cheese.
Meatballs
Serves 3-4
1lb. grass-fed ground beef
1 egg
1/4 c. parmesan cheese
5 leaves of fresh basil; chopped
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
Dash of salt and pepper.
Optional coconut oil for cooking
1. May turn heat to medium and add 1tbs. of coconut oil. Turn off when coconut oil coats bottom of pan.
2. Using your hands, mix all the ingredients into the beef.
3. Divide into 10 balls of equal size and place in pan as you go.
4. Turn pan to medium heat, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes rotating the meatballs every 3 or 4 minutes until browned.
I love these! I made them twice now and the first time I didn't cook them in the oil. It makes no difference either way. Really, try them. You'll have them for dinner and you'll hardly be able to wait til the next day for the leftovers.
