Easy Paleo Meatloaf PT75M https://img1.recipesrun.com/201907/2019/0808/b0/d/203279/300x200x90.jpg If you don't know much about the paleo diet, meatloaf feels like the one thing you can eat—because, well, meat. But several ingredients in traditional meatloaf aren't paleo-friendly (looking at you, breadcrumbs), so we rejiggered our classic meatloaf recipe, adapting it to become paleo-friendly. Meatloaf is bound together with eggs and breadcrumbs. Since wheat products aren't allowed on paleo, we swap in almond flour, which helps bind the meat mixture without any gluten. Ketchup has added refined sugars, so we make our own by stirring together a mixture of tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, and spices that's way better than the real thing. If you're going paleo, you need a bottle of coconut aminos. It's basically like soy sauce—with a rich, salty, umami-like flavor that'll punch up any meal. And, bonus, it's made from the sap of coconut palm trees, so it's paleo-approved. Meatloaf is, well, kinda like banana bread or a cake in that it needs time to rest in the pan to help it set before getting turned out onto a serving plate. Don't skip the resting time—you'll risk the meatloaf crumbling or falling apart. Give it a few! 6 servings Ingredients: Pinch cayenne pepper 1/4 tsp. Mustard powder 1/2 tsp. Garlic powder 2 tbsp. Apple cider vinegar 1/4 c. Tomato paste 2 tbsp. Coconut aminos, divided 2 Large eggs 1/2 c. Almond flour 2 pounds Ground beef Freshly ground black pepper Kosher salt 1 tsp.
