Because I love Italian food so much!
Meatballs are almost naturally low carb...except for that "bread crumb" ingredient...oy! But, fear not! These meatballs are perfectly juice, tender, delicious AND low carb, because their "bread" content is made from my Best Low Carb Buns! :)
This is one of our absolute favorite meals...ever! It's decadent, rich, filling, tasty, it's everything Italian food should be. I serve this with a good size green salad.
Here's what you'll need:
1 recipe Low Carb Bechamel Sauce (or 1/2 a recipe depending on how many people you want to feed!)
1 batch Low Carb Meatballs
Thin slices of soft mozzarella
Grated Parmesan for topping
Maybe some leftover Best Low Carb Buns for sopping up that bechamel sauce!
How about a little fresh sliced basil to make it pretty? :)
Preheat oven to 375.
Prepare your baking dish (or single serve dishes) by rubbing with olive or avocado oil.
Spoon a small amount of bechamel sauce onto bottom of dish.
Place desired number of meatballs in dish (I served one too many for each of us, so don't get carried away like we did, lol)
Top with both cheeses. Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
Turn on broiler (make sure you dish is broiler safe!) and broil for 2-3 minutes or just until the cheese begins to bubble and turn golden.
There. You're done. Go eat! :) Light a candle, put on some Italian music, swoon at your honey. :)
