Low-Carb Meatballs alla Parmigiana (GF)

We love Italian food and I am always trying to make it healthy, while still maintaining excellent flavor. This recipe for Low-Carb Meatballs alla Parmigiana was a hit and not too difficult to make! You will need almond flour, which can be expensive, but makes this dish Gluten Free. I used light/skim mozzarella cheese. I hope you enjoy this meal as much as my family did! We served it on top of brown rice, but you could make noodles instead.
