Simple gluten-free meatballs for your family to enjoy. Made with only 6 ingredients that are found in most kitchens. Your family is going to love the flavours.
My family prefers meatballs made with chicken, so I have been experimenting with new recipes. This recipe is one of our favorites as it is super simple, moist, and provides lean protein and fibre. Made with almond flour to make the recipe gluten free. Almond flour is high in protein, low in carbohydrates, and contains fibre which makes it one of my favorite flours to use.
I hope you give it a try and becomes one of your family’s favorites too!
