Ingredients

  • 1 Pound Italian Sausage
  • 1/2 Cup Parmesan grated
  • 1 Egg

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F, and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl combine Italian sausage (1 pound), grated parmesan (1/2 cup) and 1 egg.
  • Using about 2 Tablespoons worth of meat, roll into a ball.
  • Place meatballs on prepared baking sheet and into the middle rack of the oven.
  • Bake for 12 minutes. Check doneness by testing the internal temp with a meat thermometer (should be 165 F).
  • Serve with marinara and enjoy!

Notes

  • Serving reccomendations:
  • Over pasta, spaghetti squash, or zoodles!
  • I love to toss the meatballs in my low carb spaghetti sauce.
  • I was able to make 30 meatballs from this recipe, so a serving would be 5 meatballs. If you make larger meatballs divide the recipe by 6 and that will equal one serving size:
