If you’ve been watching the keto diet in the news lately, you may be curious to know if it’s possible to make delicious meatballs that are also keto. The short answer is yes, but to do so you need to cook them in a crockpot. You can also use this recipe as a base for different types of meatballs (like chicken and beef) to make a variety of keto dishes.
The keto diet is getting more and more attention these days and rightfully so. While this may seem counterintuitive, some of the most amazing things happen when you stop eating carbs. The keto diet is a low carb diet, and if you are on a low carb diet, you will want to eat high fat. High fat foods are not only delicious, they are also filling and satisfying.
Swedish meatballs are a favorite of mine and I will never tire of the combination of creamy gravy and tender meat. And it’s no wonder, since it’s one of the most popular meals in Sweden.
Keto gravy with “Swedish” meatballs
While my Swedish friends argue that these meatballs in gravy aren’t really Swedish, everyone agrees that they’re excellent. And it’s low-carb! Make this into a meatloaf and bake it longer in a loaf pan for a fast variation.

Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (185 degrees Celsius).

Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing basin and stir well. Make 24 balls out of the meat mixture.
-
Place meatballs in a single layer on a baking sheet, 12” (3-5 cm) apart.

Pork may be used instead of beef.
If you don’t like pork, this dish may be prepared without the pig rinds by using all ground beef or a mix of ground beef and lamb, chicken, or turkey.
Put some color in there.
