Keto-Friendly Ricotta Chicken Meatballs Recipe FTW

Keto-Friendly Ricotta Chicken Meatballs Recipe FTW

We never met a meatball we didn't like but if you're following a ketogenic diet, spaghetti and meatballs are usually off the table. Our keto-friendly version topped over zoodles keeps you on plan while savoring one of the old classics.

Ingredients

1/2 cup blanched almond flour
1/2 cup grated high quality Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon dried Italian herbs
1/2 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated onion
1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon salt
cracked black pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (preferably convection if you have it), and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
In a medium mixing bowl, stir all of the ingredients except for the chicken together using a fork until well combined.
Place ground chicken in a large mixing bowl, and stir in the ricotta mixture with a fork using large circular motions until well incorporated. (Mixture should seem slightly wet.)
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop balls onto the parchment-lined sheet pan. Try to space them out evenly. It's okay if they touch.
Place in oven and roast for 25 minutes, turning pan halfway through.
Remove meatballs from oven and serve immediately with the accoutrements of your choice.

4 Ways We're Styling the Kiddos for Back to “School” This Fall

H&M

None

Somehow it's already August (what is time?!) and school, in many shapes and forms, is right around the corner. Many of us are balancing a combination of distance and virtual learning, sending kids back for a couple days a week or in shifts, attending outdoor classes, homeschooling while parents work in shifts, or even hiring teachers for quarantine pods of similar aged kids. That's a whole lot of possibilities! While we try to create routine and establish some semblance of normalcy in our lives, back to school style is one fun way to get your kiddos excited for getting back in the groove of learning, whatever that looks like. That special first day of school outfit is still a tradition you can keep!

We've teamed up with H&M to get Brit and her sons Ansel and Austin 'fitted for the new school year with back to school styles for every kind of classroom. Scroll on to see how we're getting ready with trendy wardrobe essentials and comfy-cute styles.

First Day of "School" Outfit

Whether your kiddo is catching up with friends IRL or via a video classroom, you can't send them back to school without a super fun first day outfit. Let them choose their favorite colors, patterns, characters and more. You can even do a virtual shopping trip and invite them to pick out a couple special pieces for the new year.

Dust off all those school supplies you bought by the boxful back in March, this year's school scene will definitely be a hybrid of homeschool, distance learning and educational playtime.

Take It Outside

Layers on layers! With some schools bringing the classroom outside and homeschool often taking place in the backyard, we've gotta get our kiddos layered up. Getting outside is also essential for making sure your little ones don't go into zombie zone after too much screen time. Whenever you can get outside for a lesson or activity, we highly encourage you to do so!

Lay out a bunch of cute options (that actually fit! and are seasonally appropriate) and let your kid get creative with their look. Then all you have to do is give them a quick steam to create a put-together look.
