This gluten-free meatball recipe is for my meat lovers looking for a gluten, dairy and egg free way to add protein to their favorite meal. Put them on your go-to noodles and you’ve got yourself a yummy meal.

TIPS FOR MAKING THESE

1. Look for ground meat that’s organic. If you can shop at a small, local butcher and have them ground the meat fresh for you, even better.
2. Boost the vitamin K power by adding in some chopped parsley. Vitamin K helps reduce estrogen dominance which is a really big contributor to Hashimoto’s Disease.
