Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 0.5 pound ground pork
  • 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 0.25 cup almond flour
  • 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 skewers

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, chopped onion, almond flour, chopped parsley, egg, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 2

Take a small amount of the meat mixture and roll it into a ball approximately 1.5 inches in diameter. Continue this process until all the mixture is used, yielding about 16 meatballs.

Step 3

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread two meatballs onto each skewer, spacing them about an inch apart.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium heat, approximately 375°F (190°C). Lightly brush the meatballs with olive oil to prevent sticking and to help them brown nicely.

Step 5

Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meatballs are nicely browned and cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

Step 6

Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. You can garnish with additional parsley if desired.

Step 7

Serve the grilled meatball skewers with a side salad or grilled vegetables for a complete Whole30 meal.
