Atkins Diet Recipes: Low Carb Swedish Meatballs (IF*)
** Recipe included in my new low carb, gluten free cookbook, Low Carbing Among Friends. Please check it out at our website @ http://www.amongfriends.us **In partnership with FaveDiets ( http://www.FaveDiets.com ) recipe site, I continue my series of Super Bowl party recipes. This recipe is also in honor of Scandinavian viewers, especially one from Sweden. I asked what a meal she would like low carb, and she replied "Swedish Meatballs." I was happy to comply with her request.This recipe originally came from Alton Brown of Good Eats fame. I had to change a few things from the original, specifically the binder and gravy recipes. I converted it to a pretty good low carb recipe, and even the reported nutrition information at 3.8h net carbs might even be a bit high. One might ask why I used the stand mixer to mix the meat mixture together where others I used my hands or my daughters' hands, but with this recipe, I wanted to hold the meatballs together. For that they needed to be mixed really well.Here are the stats for the last month of my viewers to my channel page on Youtube:1. United States 1,7492. Canada 2033. United Kingdom 135**4. Sweden 61** For the Xanthan gum, here is a link on where to purchase it: http://bit.ly/e0msAP*Join the Facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/Atkins...

@serineea Thank you for the very nice compliments -- sorry for the lateness of the reply, I was on vacation without Internet.

I only use breadcrumbs that are swollowing with water for like 10 minutes, then some eggs, salt, pepper, onion and meat ofc...

I agree, and it was simple to make. Thanks for watching!

Wow, that sure looks good.

Trust me I am the fortunate one. She often tells me she won't let me do the dishes since I made supper. That's an even trade to me.

oooooh Kent, all your recipes are DELICIOSO! Lucky wife never has to cook!

Actually a perhaps better alternative solution to cream cheese would be 1/2 tsp of Xanthan Gum -or- 1 egg with 1 cup of cream. Either one of them would work well too.

just wondering instead of carbquick use the 3oz brick of cream cheese?
