Low Carb Marinara + Mozzarella Meatloaf Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by aerin8

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds lean ground beef
11 ⁄2 cups marinara sauce, no sugar added
1 ⁄4 cup diced red onion
3 large eggs
1 ⁄2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 ⁄2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper
3 ⁄4 cup mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and ready a nonstick 9x5 loaf pan for baking. (Or spray a regular loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.) 2. In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, 1 cup of the marinara sauce, diced red onion, eggs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper. (This is easiest done with your hands.) 3. Evenly fill loaf pan with the meatloaf mixture, patting with your hands to form an even top. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes. 4. Remove loaf from oven; drain any excess fat or liquid, and then top with the remaining 1⁄2 cup of marinara sauce, and all of the mozzarella cheese. Return to oven and bake an additional 30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 165 degrees. Drain fat from pan once more and let rest 10 minutes before cutting into 8 equal slices. George's Tips | When buying marinara sauce, it is very important to read the labels! Look for the sauce that is the lowest in sugar. While tomatoes contain some natural sugars, check the ingredients list for any sugar or corn syrup that may have been added. With so many jars to choose from, there's no need to buy the one with added corn syrup! Variation | If you do not have a loaf pan, simply form a rounded loaf by hand in a large baking dish. Also, you can make an Italian Vegetable Stuffed Meatloaf by adding 1⁄4 cup of diced roasted red peppers and 1⁄2 cup of diced fresh zucchini. calories:425|fat: 28g|protein: 29g |fiber: 1g|net carbs:6.5g See More of my Recipes on Pinterest---> http://www.pinterest.com/thegeorgestella/low-carb/

This meatloaf was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.

This meatloaf was a hit with my family! The marinara and mozzarella cheese gave it a delicious flavor, and the almond flour and flax meal made it a healthier option. I will definitely be making this again.
