  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

For the sauce:
  • 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste

Instructions

To make the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, almond flour, Parmesan cheese, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Add the egg and mix until combined. Form the mixture into 12 to 14 small meatballs and set aside.



In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.



To make the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, tomato paste, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Pour the sauce into the slow cooker. Add the meatballs to the slow cooker and stir to combine.



Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours. Stir in the parsley and basil. Serve with a side of cooked vegetables or a salad.

Notes

For a more intense flavor, you can add 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the sauce. If you don't have fresh parsley and basil, you can use 1 teaspoon of each dried herb instead. You can also use ground turkey or pork in place of the ground beef.



To make the meatballs gluten-free, you can use gluten-free bread crumbs or almond flour in place of the regular bread crumbs. You can also use low-fat ground beef or turkey in place of the regular ground beef.
