Gluten Free Spaghetti and Meatballs

Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

Gluten Free Spaghetti and Meatballs

Envision mounds of spaghetti, fork twirling strands in a spoon, tasty meatballs, topped with red sauce and all gluten free. For the best tasting pasta, try  Sams Mills pasta d’oro.

Ready to make them? Let’s go.

Instructions

*Free printable recipe card is available at the end of the post.

Whisk together egg, parsley, onion, ketchup, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl to blend. Stir in parmesan cheese and gluten-free breadcrumbs. Then mix in ground beef.

Shape into meatballs. Not too tightly. You want to lightly roll them between your hands to form a ball that feels like it will just hold together.

Then either fry your meatballs in oil and brown them well on all sides over medium-low heat or broil them, as I do.

Finally, transfer the meatballs to your sauce, cover, and simmer until the meatballs are cooked through.

Serve them hot over cooked gluten-free spaghetti topped with grated Parmesan cheese.

    Gluten made a mess of the middle of my life: from get older 38, to age 63. after the major crash in 1991, I decided to MDs for 11 years and can never get a analysis. Then went to the naturopath, and got a diagnosis (silent celiac) within yearly. It then took another 6 years to acquire well, requiring much individual research, to heal gluten enteropathy, deal with all my nutritional inadequacies, and thyroid issues (hypothyroidism in addition to Reverse T3 Dominance).
