Preheat oven to 400 F. In a large bowl mix the ground beef with the crushed pork rinds, the egg, garlic powder, onion powder and salt and pepper. Then, line a lasagna pan or cookie sheet with tin foil. Roll out small, one inch meatballs. Place the meatballs in the pan, and bake for 10 minutes. Pour off any grease then turn your oven to broil. Bake for another 8 – 10 minutes, turning a few times if needed.

Meatballs with Keto Peanut Satay Sauce

This Incredibly Simple Recipe for Meatballs with Keto Peanut Satay Sauce is really easy to make. The sauce can be whipped up in a few minutes. It’s so tasty, you’ll want to add it to your regular dinner rotation. I’ve used the tasty sauce for a number of dishes, including chicken smothered in peanut sauce and as a dipping sauce for my favourite gluten free spring rolls. The sauce is slightly spicy but is mild enough for my 10 year old to eat.

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis. While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

If you love Low Carb Appetizers, then you’ll want to try out these Bacon Crab Rangoon Fat Bombs.  They’re a bite-sized Fat Bomb that’s loaded with flavor and provides a nutritious hit of healthy fats.

Meatballs with Keto Peanut Satay Sauce

Ingredients 

For the Keto Peanut Satay Sauce:

1 1/2 Tbsp Red Curry Paste

1 Can Coconut Milk

5 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter

3 Tbsp White Vinegar

1 Tbsp Granulated Sweetener (I used this one) 

For the Keto Meatballs:

1 1/2 lbs Ground Beef (750 g) 

1/2 Cup Pork Rinds

1 Egg

1 Tsp Garlic Powder

1 Tsp Onion Powder

Salt and Pepper

Directions 

For the Keto Peanut Sauce: 

1. Blend the curry paste in a small pot with the liquid from the coconut milk. Once it’s fully combined, add the cream from the can of coconut milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then add the peanut butter, sweetener and vinegar to the pot. Stir constantly until it begins to boil again.

2. Let simmer on low for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

For the meatballs:

1. Preheat oven to 400 F. In a large bowl mix the ground beef with the crushed pork rinds, the egg, garlic powder, onion powder and salt and pepper. ( If using salted pork rinds you shouldn’t need to add much more salt)

2. Line a lasagna pan or cookie sheet with tin foil. Then roll out, small one inch meatballs. Place the meatballs in the pan, and bake for 10 minutes. Pour off any grease then turn your oven to broil. Bake for another 8 – 10 minutes, turning a few times if needed.

3. Transfer the cooked meatballs to a smaller baking dish, then cover them with 3/4 of the keto peanut  sauce. Bake for another 5 – 10 minutes. Serve on their own with the remaining sauce as a dip, or serve as a side with cauliflower rice and steamed veggies.

Recipe Notes:

– If serving as an appetizer, try placing the meatballs on a larger pan with some space between them. This will help make them a little prettier.

– Placing your coconut milk in the fridge before using will help separate the cream from the liquid. Also opening the can upside down will make separating it easier.

– Adding a few crushed peanuts to the sauce with add a little texture.

–  If using salted pork rinds you won’t need to add much salt.

– For a non low carb peanut satay sauce, replace the sweetener with 3 Tbsp of brown sugar.

– For a bit less spicy sauce, add 1 Tbsp of the curry paste instead of 1 1/2.

– If you don’t have tin foil, just use an unlined baking pan.
