Since I started South Beach [2] back on January 1st (still going strong, btw, even though I have had a few cheating days) I’ve tried to find as many great low-carb recipes as possible that can be adapted to have carbs for the rest of the fam.

One of my favorite things to do is make homemade meatballs! They are SO easy, are packed full of protein, and if you bake them instead of fry them then they will hold together really well even without the eggs and breadcrumbs (we just found out that our youngest is allergies to eggs, but hopefully he will grow out of it!)

So… here is my absolute favorite and EASY Homemade Low-Carb Baked Meatball recipe!! And it’s pretty versatile too. You can add or substitue any of the seasonings if you want to, or you can add some tomato sauce or ketchup or even parmesan cheese if you want those flavors instead!
