Asian Mini Meatballs:

• ▢ 1 pound ground pork or ground beef (NOTE: this meal can be PROTEIN SPARING if you use extra lean meat)
• ▢ 2 teaspoons Chinese 5 spice
• ▢ 2 cloves garlic minced
• ▢ 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
• ▢ 1 teaspoon Redboat fish sauce
• ▢ 1 tablespoon Tallow or Lard (for searing)

Vermicelli Noodles:

• ▢ 4 packages Miracle Noodles Eggwhite Noodles vermicelli shaped
• ▢ 3 tablespoons tamari sauce
• ▢ 2 tablespoons beef broth (or water)
• ▢ 2 tablespoons lime juice
• ▢ 1 teaspoon stevia glycerite (or 2 tablespoons Brown Allulose)
• ▢ 1 teaspoon Redboat fish sauce`

Garnish:

• ▢ scallions Thinly sliced
• ▢ Fresh cilantro leaves

Instructions

 

• To make the meatballs, place all of the ingredients except the tallow/lard into a large bowl. Use your hands to combine well. Form into 1 inch balls (I used a small ice cream scooper to make the evenly sized).
• Heat the tallow in a large skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, place the meatballs into the skillet and cook on all sides until cooked through (this will take about 15 minutes which you can make the vermicelli part of the dish during this time while turning the meatballs every 5 minutes).
• To make the vermicelli protein noodles, drain the vermicelli Miracle Noodles and place into another skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the tamari sauce, beef broth (or water), lime juice, stevia glycerite and fish sauce. Stir together well and taste. Adjust sweetness and flavor to your liking. Once the noodles are hot, remove from skillet and place onto a serving platter. Top with the cooked meatballs and garnish with thinly sliced scallions and cilantro leaves. Enjoy!

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY

“Motivation monday! This is the time of year when all I’m asked 8 hr a day is what I’m eating for holidays. Most everyone is going someplace dealing with stress and it’s easy to slip into patterns. I’ve had to get right in my head to change how i look at food and gatherings. Feel free to offer it’s not will power it’s i don’t want to hurt anymore! 

Once you eat very clean you see how your body reacts to things like sugary carbie overloads, even alcohol.

I’ve been over weight my whole life and began this March 5 2020. Not a yo-yo dieter, only once before i changed my eating habits and incorporated lots of exercise dropped 75lbs and i was burnt out! Familiar patterens returned and most of that weight was put on and in my 40’s and family genes were kicking in. Hello hypertension looking at meds and type 2 was gonna be next just knowing my family. I started looking into this and was seeing so many options. 

Cutting to the chase I started following Keto Adapted – Maria Emmerich inhaling the words from Craig Emmerich and of coarse looking into things myself. I meal prep heavily and pack everywhere i go. I’ve dropped about 100lbs over 80+ inches gone and have kept it off for almost 3yrs. 

Do I have slip up moments? Yes, not often but each day is a new day to make good choices I don’t have hypertension no diabetes im now 50 and fabulous!! If I can do this so can you. No one is going to be your greatest advocate other then you for your health!” – Irene 

Most people I consult are doing keto totally wrong. Get fast results with the my Mind-blowing Keto School!
