I've been making these meatballs for the last couple of years and they've always been popular in my house. These use chorizo which adds a great flavour to any dishes. I've used it as crunchy topping in my Spicy Cauliflower Soup.

These keto meatballs taste great on their own or with creamy Keto Cheese Sauce and Buttered Brussels Sprouts.

If you can't do dairy, skip the cheese sauce. The meatballs are quite moist so you won't need to add any additional sauce and can serve them over crunchy lettuce salad, with steamed broccoli or asparagus.

Martina Slajerova Creator of KetoDietApp.com I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight. That’s when I decided to quit sugar, grains, and processed foods, and to start following a whole-foods-based ketogenic approach to food. More posts by Martina Slajerova Martina Slajerova
