<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
2 lbs. 900g ground turkey<\/p>\n
1 cup 120g shredded mozzarella<\/p>\n
1\/2 cup 50g grated or shredded parmesan<\/p>\n
1 egg<\/p>\n
2 teaspoons onion powder<\/p>\n
2 teaspoons fresh minced garlic<\/p>\n
1\/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning blend<\/p>\n
1\/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper<\/p>\n
1\/2 teaspoon Cayenne pepper optional<\/p>\n
1\/2 teaspoon crushed red chili pepper flakes optional<\/p>\n
1 cup 240ml low-carb Marinara sauce<\/p>\n
1 cup 120g shredded cheese of your choice for topping (Mozzarella, Provolone, Monterrey Jack, Cheddar\u2026)<\/p>\n
Fresh basil or parsley for topping<\/p>\n
Preheat your oven to 400\u00baF (200\u00baC). Lightly spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.<\/p>\n
In a large salad bowl, combine ground turkey, mozzarella, parmesan, egg, onion powder, garlic, Italian seasoning, Cayenne, and crushed chili pepper flakes. Use a small cookie scoop to form the meatballs all the same size and arrange the meatballs in the casserole dish.<\/p>\n
Bake the meatballs casserole for 15 to 20 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove from the oven and drain the grease.<\/p>\n
Top the meatballs with low-carb Marinara sauce and shredded cheese, and put the casserole back in the oven. Bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until the cheese has fully melted.<\/p>\n
Serve the low-carb meatballs casserole with a side salad or over zucchini noodles as pictured.<\/p>\n
Enjoy!<\/p>\n
This recipe is perfect for those who are following a low-carb diet, as it is made with ground turkey and topped with low-carb marinara sauce and cheese.<\/p>\n
Feel free to substitute the ground turkey with ground beef, chicken or pork if you prefer.<\/p>\n
To make this recipe even lower in carbs, skip the breadcrumbs and use almond flour or coconut flour instead.<\/p>\n
For a spicier version, add more Cayenne pepper or crushed red chili flakes to the meatball mixture.<\/p>\n
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
