With these gluten-free meatballs the motto is "No bread crumbs? No problem!" Instead of bread crumbs they call for gluten-free oats, which work just as well and bring extra nutrition to the party too.

Ingredients

• 2 pounds ground beef
• 2/3 cup gluten-free quick-cooking oats
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1-1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning
• 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 jar (24 ounces) marinara sauce
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°. Fit a 15x10x1-in. baking sheet with a wire rack; coat with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, combine first 9 ingredients. Mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into 1-1/2 in. balls. Line on prepared wire rack, spacing 1-in. apart. Bake until internal temperature reaches 165°, 25-30 minutes.
3. Transfer meatballs to a large skillet. Add marinara sauce; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook 4-5 minutes or until marinara is bubbly. Top with Parmesan cheese and parsley.
