Preparation

Heat a skillet sauté the onion in a little olive oil. Add a little salt and cook until translucent.  Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

In a large bowl, add the eggs, parsley (reserve 1 tsp for garnish), salt, pepper, garlic salt, almond flour, nutmeg, allspice, worcestershire and onion, mix to combined. Add the ground beef and pork and mix well.

Form the meatballs (I use a cookie scoop) in uniform size and sauté the meatballs in olive oil (or other Keto-friendly oil) until well-browned. Remove the meatballs to a platter lined with paper towels as they are done.

Discard most of the fat from the skillet and return it to the heat. Add the chicken stock to deglaze the pan, then add the sour cream and heavy cream.

Add the meatballs back in and continue to simmer for 15-20 minutes or until sauce has thickened to your liking. Serve over zucchini noodles, spaghetti squash, cauliflower rice or they are also great all on their own!  Store leftovers in the fridge for a few days or freeze.
