Description

These easy paleo sweet and sour meatballs are a healthy remake of a classic recipe that is gluten free and whole30 complaint! They’re a weeknight meal that everyone will love!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE MEATBALLS:
  • 1 pound Lean Ground Beef (I Used 93% Lean)
  • 1  Egg
  • ¼ cups Green Onion, Minced, Plus Extra For Garnish
  • ½ teaspoons Sea Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Pepper
  • 4 teaspoons Coconut Flour
  • FOR THE SAUCE:
  • ¾ cups 100% Grape Juice
  • ½ cups Canned Tomato Sauce
  • ¼ cups Medjool Dates (very Lightly Packed - 42g)
  • 2 Tablespoons Coconut Vinegar
  • ½ Tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic, Minced
  • ½ teaspoons Dry Mustard
  • ½  Small Onion, Roughly Chopped
  • ¼ teaspoons Sea Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Tabasco Sauce
  • ⅛ teaspoons Pepper
  • Pinch Of Ground Allspice
  • Cauliflower Rice, Or White Rice, For Serving

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

In a large bowl, mix beef, egg, green onion, salt and pepper using your hands. Once mixed, add coconut flour and mix again until evenly dispersed.

Roll into 1 1/2 inch balls and place onto a cookie sheet (it should make about 20 balls.) Bake until no longer pink inside, about 16–18 minutes. Make sure you don’t over-bake, so the meat doesn’t get tough.

While the meatballs cook, stir togehter all of the sauce ingredients in a medium pot and bring to a boil on high heat. Once boiling, cook for 1 1/2 minutes, stirring frequently. Once the sauce has boiled for 1 1/2 minutes, turn heat down to medium and simmer until sauce begins to thicken and reduce, about 8–9 minutes, stirring frequently.

Once reduced, pour sauce into a high powered blender and blend until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl and cover to keep warm.

Once the meatballs are done, add them into the sauce and stir until well coated. Serve over side of choice, garnish with extra green onion and devour.
