Tips When Making These Baked Gluten-Free Meatballs

Make it Paleo: For a grain-free/paleo version, simply leave out the gluten-free breadcrumbs!

Pasta: I used Jovial Brown Rice Spaghetti to keep my entire meal gluten-free. I highly recommend any Jovial pastas. They’re truly the best gluten-free pasta I’ve tried on the market!

Cheese: To keep this dish dairy-free, I grated a block of Violife’s Vegan Parmesan Cheese over my spaghetti and meatballs.

Meat: I used beef, but you can use chicken, or turkey to make these meatballs.

Note: You can use oatmeal, potato flakes or breadcrumbs as a binder. My favorite way to make meatballs is with gluten-free breadcrumbs.
