Make It Gluten Free or Keto
While I used a basic bag of Great Value (Walmart) brand of frozen homestyle meatballs that are not gluten free or keto because they contain wheat you can find other brands of frozen meatballs that are both gluten free and keto diet friendly. Just read packaging labels to find a brand that works for your specific dietary needs.

Notes
Meatball Note – If you are on a gluten-free or keto diet look for frozen meatballs that are compatible with your special dietary needs. There are a lot of options available that are both keto friendly and gluten-free.
Cheese Note – This ingredient is a pre-shredded cheese item that includes a combination of Monterey Jack, cheddar, queso quesadilla, and asadero cheeses. If you cannot find this exact blend of cheeses at your grocery store you can also use a Mexican blend of shredded cheese OR just a cup of cheddar and/or Monterey Jack cheeses.
