Today we’re taking a classic pasta dish and turning it gluten-free!😋🍝 We’ll be incorporating one of my FAVORITE gluten-free recipe hacks: using crushed up almond flour crackers in place of breadcrumbs in our meatballs 🤩
Ingredients:
1 lb gluten-free pasta (I used @jovialfoods)
1 jar gluten-free marinara (I used @thejerseytomatoco)
1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb spicy Italian sausage
2/3 cup onion, finely diced
2 eggs
2/3 cup crushed gluten-free crackers (I used @simplemills almond flour crackers)
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Directions:
Add ground beef, spicy Italian sausage, crushed crackers, nutritional yeast, onion, eggs, parsley, salt and pepper to a bowl. Mix with your hands (you can use a spoon but I find hands to be easiest) until just combined. Roll meatballs into 2 in balls.
Add your jar of marinara to a large cast iron skillet or Dutch oven and bring to a simmer. Add the meatballs, cover, and cook for 25 minutes without moving. Flip and cook, covered, for an additional 5 minutes.
While the meatballs are cooking, make your spaghetti by following the cooking instructions on the box (each pasta will have different instructions).
When your meatballs and pasta have cooked, dish up, and top with more parsley and nutritional yeast (or parmesan if you aren’t dairy-free!) and ENJOY!!🍝
