Recipe Tips
To make these Keto Instant Pot meatballs even healthier, you can add in some cooked diced vegetables such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or zucchini. You can also try swapping out the ground beef for ground turkey or chicken. If you’re looking for an even lower-carb option, you can use almond meal or coconut flour instead of breadcrumbs.
If you’d like to change up the flavors, you can use your favorite herbs and spices. Some great options include basil, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. For a cheesy twist, you can mix in some grated Parmesan cheese.
