Parmesan cheese, among the most widely used cheeses in the world, is sharp, tangy, and one of the best low-carb ingredients to use in your cooking. Said to have originated from Italy’s Parma region, this cheese has been a staple in European kitchens for centuries. It’s high in protein, fat, and rich in important minerals like calcium, and vitamins B6 and B12.

Enjoy this savory low-carb dish on its own, with the zucchini noodles (zoodles) or served with spaghetti squash noodles. Best of all, busy households can still enjoy this meal. Make the meatballs ahead of time and store it in the fridge if it’s going to be eaten the next day, or freeze them for up to a month.
