Description
A low carb and gluten free mediterranean inspired meatball recipe
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb. ground turkey
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 Tbl (.5 oz) sundried tomatoes, chopped
- 1 Tbl fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 tsp dried thyme)
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 2 Tbl water
- olive oil for frying
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients (except olive oil) in a medium bowl and mix well. Form 16 one inch meatballs and fry them in olive oil in a large saute pan. Do not crowd the meatballs or they won’t get brown and crisp – you may have to fry them in batches to get the best results. Cook for about 3 – 4 minutes, turn over and cook for an additional 3 – 4 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from pan and place on paper towel-lined plate to absorb any extra oil. These can be eaten alone or served with marinara sauce and spaghetti squash for a complete meal.
