Today's Keto Meatball Casserole recipe is full of meaty cheesy goodness. And each serving has just 4g net carbs.
“We don't need another hero, we don't need to know the way home. All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome.” - Tina Turner
Good morning. Guess what song I have stuck in my head today? Yep, it’s the theme from Mad Max, sung by the Queen, Tina Turner. I’m about to share my recipe Keto Meatball Casserole, but not before passing on this ear worm. Apologies in advance.
But if you’ve never seen Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, then you really owe it to yourself to watch it.
It’s a dystopian classic. I was too young to watch it when it came out in 1985, but I made a point to see it as an adult. Luckily, Tina Turner’s music video for “We Don’t Need Another Hero” will give you a taste of the awesomeness of this movie. (video below)
And speaking of awesomeness, today I made a killer Keto Meatball Casserole.
First I baked up some meatballs made from ground beef, sausage, almond flour, parmesan cheese, eggs and a little water to steam the meat. (That makes for a very tender meatball.) I topped them with sugar-free marinara sauce and melted mozzarella cheese over the whole shebang. And voilà, I had a tasty meatball casserole with only 4g net carbs per serving. It’s hearty, meaty and very cheesy.
Not unlike Mel Gibson as Mad Max, now that I think about it.

How many meatballs is a serving? I’m making tonight but I want to make sure not to go over my net carbs my last meal Of the day

I'm not sure that I counted how many meatballs went into this casserole, sorry. Each serving is 1/8 of the casserole though, so you should be able eyeball it. Or you could weigh it out. Each serving should be a little more than 1/4 of a pound.
