Quantity: 8-9 single-servings
Time: 10-15 prep time + 50 minutes cooking time
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1lb. ground pork
- 1/2 yellow or white onion, minced
- Handful of mushrooms, minced
- 2/3 cup almond flour
- 2 pastured eggs
- 2/3 cup of tomato sauce (ours was homemade)
- Salt and pepper (and any other herbs/spices - I added garlic)
- 7-8 slices of bacon (regular would be better, but our turkey bacon was good too)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and place your oven rack in the middle of the oven.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. It’s VERY important to use a baking sheet with sides (at least 1/2″).
Your meatloafs are going to release a lot of juice/fat in the cooking process, and I guarantee you don’t want it all over the bottom of your oven. - Create your tomato sauce by placing the fire-roasted tomatoes (with liquid), garlic, salt and pepper in your food processor and blending until smooth.
- In a large bowl, get your hands dirty and combine your ground meats, eggs, veggies, almond flour, tomato sauce, salt, and pepper.
- Separate your mixture into 7-8 portions and form into mini loafs, placing them on your lined baking sheet.
- For each loaf, cut a piece of thick-cut bacon in half, lay parallel across loaf, and tuck ends under.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. At 40 minutes, turn on your broiler and cook for another 10 minutes to crisp the bacon.
Sounds delicious!
