4. Carnivore Scotch Eggs

Carnivore Ground Beef Recipes (5 Easiest & Tastiest Ones) (5)

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 25 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Number of Servings: 5

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of ground beef
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 10 large hard-boiled eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 ℉.
  • Line one large baking tray with a baking sheet (you can use two small pans).
  • Place the meat in a large mixing basin and season with salt. Hand mix the ingredients and shape them into ten meatballs. Place the meatballs on the prepared baking pans and flatten them.
  • Put one boiled egg in the center of each beef circle and wrap the meat around the egg, ensuring no gaps or holes.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes, then flip to cook the other side. I love my carnivore meatballs with a crispier finish, so I broil for an extra 5 minutes.

I love this easy recipe because it’s quicker to meal prep, it’s protein-packed, and I can eat the zero-carb egg for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Note: Use hard-boiled eggs to get a clean peel when removing the eggshell.
