Pork Meatballs with Creamy Sauce
This hearty meatball dish has a surprising amount of vegetables, perfect to get any picky eater on board. We like it served over spiralized sweet potato noodles, but any gluten-free or veggie noodles will do.

- Make the sauce: Heat the ghee in a 5 1/2 quart enameled Dutch oven. Add the onion and garlic, and saute until fragrant, about two minutes.
- Stir in the coconut cream. Add the stock to the pot and stir until evenly combined.
- Season with salt and pepper and reduce the heat to medium-low. Allow the sauce to slowly reduce, stirring every so often.
- Once the sauce has started to thicken, add the celery and mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, while you make the meatballs.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the ground pork with the Adobo seasoning. Knead the mixture with your hands until the spices are evenly blended into the meat.
- Add the whisked egg to the meat mixture, and knead again to combine.
- Form the meat mixture into 1-to2-oz meatballs (about the size of a golf ball) and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the meatballs until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes total.
- Add the seared meatballs to the sauce and continue to simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, about 20 minutes.
- While the meatballs are simmering in the sauce, prepare the sweet potato noodles.
- Place the spiral-sliced noodles in a large, heatproof glass mixing bowl. Bring enough water to cover the noodles to a rolling boil in a large pot.
- Once the water comes to a boil, remove the pot from the heat and pour the water over the noodles, making sure that the noodles are fully submerged.
- Cover the bowl with a lid and let the noodles sit in the hot water for 20 minutes, or until tender.
- Drain the noodles and serve topped with the meatballs and sauce.
