Jessica at Primal Edge Health does great work!
Look great I’m going to try with some provolone 🙂
What temperature to bake this?
350°F (175°C)
This recipe is disgusting. It comes out undercooked with the cheese pouring out. Please remove it so other people don’t waste their time and money. I’m going to try making it with two Oz per meatball, some kind of bread base and some Italian seasonings to make it more flavorful.
I wouldn’t remove it but your experience is helpful. I will try with crushed pork rinds and one egg as binding agents, plus Italian seasoning as you suggest. Thanks for the ideas.
Maybe…and I know this sounds crazy…cook it for longer? Maybe increase the temperature? Don’t just crap on the recipe brother, it’s cheese in meat, can’t really mess this up. But then again…here we are lol
Perfect response. I laughed for 20 minutes.
Sounds delicious thank you. I can’t wait to try, I’m not much of a carnivore zealot so I will add some Italian herbs to the mix.
What do you serve with it
