White Cheddar and Sun Dried Tomato Avocado Stuffed Meatballs - Low Carb, Gluten Free | Peace Love and Low Carb

White Cheddar and Sun Dried Tomato Avocado Stuffed Meatballs


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup shredded sharp white cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons rough chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoons dried minced onion (I use this brand)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 medium avocado, pitted and cubed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil


Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, egg, garlic, cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, parsley, Dijon mustard, minced onion, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  2. Form the meat mixture into 25 equal sized meatballs. No need to make them perfectly round at this stage as we still need to stuff them.
  3. Press your thumb into the center of the meatball to make a pocket. Put the avocado in the center and then form the meatball around it.
  4. Repeat this process with each meatball.
  5. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the meatballs to the pan. Brown on all sides. Cook for 6-8 minutes.
  6. If the meatballs are sticking to the pan, slide a rubber spatula underneath them to unstick them while still keeping them in tact.
