Turkey Balls and Saute Cabbage

I have fallen in love with new ways to make and eat meatballs. Since going low carb and gluten free, there are several substitutes for pasta and bread that I have found that satisfies my craving for meatballs. This is one such substitute that is surprisingly refreshing and delicious. I hope you will enjoy this dish as much as my husband and I have.
