The variations of this recipe are endless and only limited by your imagination. Feel free to change anything you want, I am personally going to use ground bison next time and lay off of the almond flour a little. This is one of those any meals of the day deliciousness. Hope you enjoy.

I just started this a week ago and I am loving your recipes…! I ordered you ebook to help me get started, that was nice to have. Thank you for making it somewhat easy to start this lifestyle, I am still searching out alot and reading alot..lol! Thank you again!
Your so welcome Rhonda. Keep up the awesome work
This was the best meatloaf I have ever had. I made a couple changes though. Didn’t have zuchini so I left it out. Minced the carrots up in my Magic Bullet. My hubby is super picky so they were more hidden that way. I added 3 teaspoons of italian seasoning, 2 teaspoons onion powder, 2 teaspoons dried parsley, and 1 teaspoon salt and pepper. I also used 1.5 pounds of ground venison. Mixed it up real good in my Kitchenaid. Lined my loaf pan with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Baked for a little over and hour. It was medium when I pulled it out of the oven and was done perfect after letting I let it rest for about 15 minutes. I am not a big fan of meatloaf and before going paleo I would drown it in ketchup. Don’t even need ketchup here!
That sounds amazing Angel :)
Can this recipe be doubled? I am feeding a family of 6 and I generally use recipes that call for 2 pounds of meat. Please let me know! I’d love to try this recipe out tonight! Thank you so much!
Of course it can be doubled Erin, go for it
What kind of Italian seasoning do you use? Is it something you make on your own or store-bought? By the way, I made your beasty BBQ sauce and had it with some paleo breaded chicken cutlets and it was amazing!
Thanks!
Haley
I used store bought for this one but I also make my own for a few other recipes
Hmm… excited to make this tonight! I wish my husband was still stationed at pendleton so he had some motivation to eat like a caveman. ha. hes the only one here at MWTC who has adopted this new lifestyle and he struggles at the chowhall. I’m going to have to force him to take his own lunch in a sack muahaha!
Good call Anna. Pack him some paleo lunches. I don’t ever eat at the snowball but it can work sometimes. I’m glad he made the switch and other people will catch on soon
This is personally one of my favorite recipes of yours. It is permanently added to my menu! Heck, I think you could even add some bacon to it. ;)
You are so right. You can always add bacon haha
Did you use the canned type of coconut milk or the kind that you pour from a carton? I am trying this with venison. Thanks for the recipes!
I only ever use full fat canned
Instead of almond flour, can you use coconut flour?
No it would completely change it. Coconut flour is extremely dense and requires a lot of moisture
Thanks!!! I have been wanting to make a meatloaf and was wondering if I could use coconut flour instead of bread crumbs….now I know to use almond flour!!! :) Can’t wait to make a bunch of them!!! I have all these different recipes in my head….just needed a “bread” switch for it!!! :)
Oh awesome Laura, glad you like it
I just added this to my menu for the second time. I cannot wait to have it again. It was the best meatloaf ever. (The fried egg on top is totally the way to go!) Thanks for all your posts. You ROCK!!
This looks really great. I've been on the hunt for a good meatloaf recipe for a while now….I'm adding this to the list to try!
I made this yesterday. It was tasty & moist. I would make it again but with less almond flour because it overshadows the meat and makes it crumbly.
The addition of the red peppers was awesome! I ate it for *both* lunch and dinner yesterday. :)
Melanie, how did yours turn out?
I have this in the oven too!!! I tasted the mixture (before I added the beef and egg) and just that was amazing! The house smells good. I can't wait!
I have this in the oven now (smells awesome, BTW). I added red peppers instead of the zucchini, so I'll let ya know how it turns out. I was pretty psyched that the grass-fed ground beef was $7.99 @ the Whole Foods by me! :)
