Gluten Free Meatballs Recipe
Meatball Ingredients:
- 1 small to medium sweet onion
- 4-5 cloves garlic, peeled, cut in half
- 1 medium carrot, peeled, cut into several pieces
- 1 pound of organic grass fed ground beef or buffalo- either works
- 1 pound of organic ground pork
- 1/2 cup Annie’s Naturals or Muir Glen Organic Ketchup

- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh Italian parsley
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup gluten-free herbed bread crumbs
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (my secret ingredient!)
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- Dash of red pepper flakes, for heat, if desired
- Olive oil, as needed

These meatballs were really good! I didn’t have any gluten free breadcrumbs, so I crushed up some GF crackers and used those instead. The meatballs didn’t stay together that well, but they were very good. They had a sweet flavor. Mmmm.
