21 Day Fix Meatloaf

I've been through stages where I am not a big meat eater, so finding a meatloaf recipe I like was a little surprising!  We have found many amazing recipes on one of our favorite sites, paleomg.com, and her Bacon Chorizo Chipotle Smothered Meatloaf is one of our favorites (sometimes I prefer without the bacon)!  We wanted a recipe that would fit more closely into our current meal plan, so just modified the recipe.  If you are looking for a treat though, definitely check out her recipe - it's incredible!!

1.5 lb lean ground beef
2 carrots, thinly sliced
1/3 yellow onion, diced
10 oz frozen chopped spinach, cooked and drained well
1 cup diced mushrooms
2 cloves minced garlic
1 cup almond flour
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
tomato sauce

Preheat oven to 350.  Mix all ingredients in large bowl and mix.  Place in 9 by 13 baking dish.  Bake about 1 hour, until center is completely cooked.  Top with tomato sauce and bake another 5 - 10 minutes.

21 Day Fix Challengers - We counted the above, which was about 1/8th of the baking dish, as 1 red, 1/4 green, and 1/4 yellow.  I served with zucchini, mushroom, and tomato sauteed with about 1 tsp coconut oil, oregano, basil, garlic, salt and pepper.
