EASY KETO MINI MEATLOAF
Steps:
- Place the ground pork rinds into a mixing bowl and add in one egg.
- Stir to coat the pork rinds evenly, and then leave to sit for 5 minutes.
- Once the pork crumbles are nice and soft (rehydrated) they're ready to use. The pork rind mixture should be nice and thick, not watery.
- Now mix the parsley and garlic into the pork rinds. I like to add my seasoning now so that they evenly distribute into the mini meatloaves.
- Add the ground beef or the ground meat of your preference. (Ground chicken, ground pork, ground turkey, or even ground sausage.)
- Mix well with your hands -- kneading away, or you use a stand mixer if you have a kneading attachment.
- I love to make my meatloaf ahead of time and let the flavors meld together in the refrigerator for a minimum of a couple hours -- or up to 24 hours.
- Pull the chilled meat mixture out of the fridge and form your individual patties by hand, or using the ultimate burger press.
- Cooking instructions will vary depending on the size of your meatloaf. Or if you want to make one large meatloaf. Expect a longer cooking time and double-check that the meatloaf is done using a meat thermometer.
- The meatloaf is done when it reaches a temperature of 155°-160°F.
- To cook my 8 oz. mini meatloaf I used my air fryer and baked them at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. The air fryer browned the cheese nicely. The design of the doughnut patties also kept these individual meatloaves nice and juicy.

LOW FAT MINI MEATLOAVES
With DH being a diabetic, I am always looking for ways to add veggies into the diet. I found a recipe on the web and did some adjusting to suit our taste. The recipe calls for ground turkey; however, extra-lean ground beef also works well. Top with Creole Sauce recipe #149159 for a fabulous main course! These can be frozen, defrosted in the refrigerator and warmed as needed making this a great recipe for small families or when preparing a meal for one.
