Everybody, and I mean everybody, loves meatballs! We like to call them amaze-balls in our house, because we love them so much! The best part? If you’re sticking to a Low Carb or Ketogenic diet (or Whole30, for that matter), you don’t have to give them up!

Cooking for different dietary restrictions

One of the things I really enjoy is finding recipes that work well for a crowd, across different dietary restrictions and eating plans. And I know a TON of people who have some family members following Keto while the other is following Whole30. Do you, too? Don’t be overwhelmed by it!

Although they’re different, there’s actually a good amount of overlap between what you can eat on Whole30 and Keto eating plans.

To make it easier, I noted the recipes that crossover (are both Keto and Whole30/Paleo compliant) and those which are stand-alone (Keto only). I hope that’s helpful!
