                        Parmesan Meatballs




            1 lb. ground beef
            1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
            1/4 cup chopped parsley
            1 egg
            1 tsp. garlic powder
            1 tsp. garlic salt


     Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Mix meat, cheese, parsley, egg, garlic powder and garlic salt.  Shape into 12 meatballs.
Place in foil-lined baking pan and bake for 25 min. or until cooked through.

Doug Varrieur:
Turn this into a Swedish meatball recipe by dumping all the meatballs and drippings into a bowl and gently mixing in 1 1/2 cups of FTS Rich and Creamy Alfredo Sauce. YUMMY!

Rich and Creamy Alfredo Sauce

INGREDIENTS


1/4 cup salted butter
1 cup zero carb heavy whipping cream
1 clove garlic, crushed (1 net carb)
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon coarse cracked black pepper

[1.5 Net Carbs for entire recipe]



1. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium low heat.
2. Sauté garlic for 1 minute
3. Whisk in cream and simmer for 5 minutes.
4. Add cheese and whisk quickly, making sure to melt the cheese completely.
5. Stir in pepper and parsley and serve.

TIP — Substitute this recipe for any recipe calling for Alfredo sauce. Many recipes call for Bertolli Alfredo sauce from a jar. Although this cuts down on prep time it increases carbs 3 net grams per ¼ cup. Using the above recipe will cut down total net carb count substantially.
