dating back to as far as 221 BC in China during the Qin Dynasty<\/a>. They have been cooked in a multitude of ways, with hundreds of different spices, types of meat and cooking methods.<\/p>\nWhether they are boiled, baked, roasted or saut\u00e9ed, meatballs are a quick and simple<\/strong> way to prepare a delicious dish, when seasoned properly.<\/p>\nHere in America, most meatball recipes are made out of ground beef and aren’t very healthy, most of the time…<\/p>\n
So today I want to give you my healthy version<\/strong> of this classic dish, made without the traditional and iconic ground beef. You will barely see the difference, I promise!<\/p>\nIt is savory enough to make you forget that these little ones are in fact made out of 100% super healthy, nutrient-packed ingredients.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For this recipe, I used breadcrumbs. But if you are gluten intolerant, you could grind the same amount of steel cut oatmeal into a fine flour using a food processor and mix it with Italian spices to your liking.<\/p>\n
High-quality oatmeal<\/strong> is gluten-free, so it is a very good option for you.\u00a0(Pay attention to the label though, as most oatmeal isn’t gluten-free nowadays)<\/p>\nCrushed gluten-free cereal or ground flax seed would also do the trick.<\/p>\n
