Week one of my Keto diet is in the books. I'm down three pounds and over the Keto hangover! I also got 12 miles of walk/run in the books as well. Below I'll share one of the great items I made this week, swedish meatballs! I did 120 so the recipe below is cut down to for a batch of about 40.
The Meatballs: 1. 2 Lbs 100% ground chuck. (You can also do a 50/50 of beef and pork) 2. 1 tsp of clove 3. 1 Tbs of nutmeg 4. 2 eggs 5. 1 tsp cardamon 6. 1 Tbs salt 7. 1 tsp pepper (more to taste) 8. 1/2 cup diced onion 9. 1 cup dried parsley flakes Combine all ingredients and then roll into about 1 oz. balls. Saute them in butter for 10 minutes until brown then bake at 350 degrees for another 12-15 minutes! The Sauce: 1. I started with a roux made of low carb flour and 1 stick of butter (the flour is only variance and using a low carb grain free flour is important to keep the sauce "keto friendly" 2. Once roux is light brown (don't burn it as this is a light colored sauce) add in 2 cups heavy cream whisk to cream it up 3. Add 2 cups beef stock (more if you need to thin out the sauce to right nappe viscosity) 4. Mix in 1/4 cup soy and 1/4 worchester sauce 5. 1 tsp onion and garlic powder 6. Finnish by adding in salt and pepper to taste.
