Instructions

Keep Screen Awake

Preheat the oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl combine first 10 ingredients, 1 minced clove of garlic, salt and pepper. Mix well and form 25 meatballs. (If meatball doesn't hold the shape well, you can add a bit more of breadcrumbs)
Arrange meatballs on a prepared baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large ovenproof skillet heat olive oil. Add mushrooms and cook on a medium heat until water evaporates, about 5-7 minute. Add the remaining minced clove of garlic and cook for another minute.
Stir in Marinara sauce, water and simmer for 5 minutes.
Arrange cooked meatballs in a skillet, gently coat them with the sauce and generously sprinkle with Mozzarella and Gruyere.
Preheat broiler and broil meatballs until cheese melts, about 2 minutes.
Serve immediately!

Notes

For this recipe I used regular breadcrumbs, but if you're on Keto or Low-Carb diet, you can definitely substitute with low carb breadcrumbs like almond flour or coconut flour.Recipe is inspired by http://www.cookinglight.com/recipes/family-style-meatball-fondueMeatball Recipe is adapted from http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/classic-italian-turkey-meatballs-recipe-3381279
