I have always adored meatballs and/or meatloaf made by mixing
hamburger, eggs, parmesan cheese and Progresso Italin bread crumbs.
Nothing else has ever tasted as good to me as this simple mixture.

Course, the bread crumbs are out on low-carb. But I recently ran
across a recipe for making a copycat of the bread crumbs homemade and
figured I'd just add the spices directly to the meat. It turned out
awesome!

I made some low-carb for myself and some "regular" for hubby at the
same time - mine actually tasted *better* as the flavoring is more
pronounced since it's not diluted with bread.

Here's the basic mix:

2 lbs hamburger
2 eggs
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp lite salt
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1 drop Sweetzfree



Love to try this, but what is sweetzfree and what is a UK alternative?
Thanks

It sounds good to me, too. I'm going to try it without the Sweetzfree
because I have learned to get along without sweeteners of any kind.
However, I had to look that one up. It is apparently a type of liquid
Splenda (with Sweetzfree as the brand name or possibly just the name of the
site that handled it), so you probably have something similar in the UK.
