Zoodles:
3 medium zucchinis, shaved into “zoodles” (or 3 cups prepared “zoodles”)
Meatballs:
12 ounces of ground beef
1 large egg
2 tablespoons almond flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
2 garlic cloves, peeled & minced

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Place zoodles in a bowl and set aside to be sautéed later.

In a bowl, mix ground beef, egg, almond flour, sea salt, black pepper and garlic until well-combined. Form into 6 large meatballs.

Heat a cast-iron skillet to high heat and sear each meatball for 1 minute per side.

Remove from the stove and place in the oven to finish cooking for 15 minutes.

Remove from the oven and place on a plate. Add the zoodles to the cast-iron skillet and sauté on medium heat until soft, about 5 minutes.
