Grain-Free Turkey Meatloaf (Paleo, Low-Carb)

Print

By

Last week I got a craving for meatloaf, so I decided to make a healthy version of it for the family. I think I will add it to our list of “go-to” easy dinners!

In order to make it healthy, I loaded this grain-free turkey meatloaf full of veggies and substituted the bread crumbs with coconut flour. The lean turkey meat is, of course, a great source of protein, but did you also know that turkey is high in tryptophan and vitamin B12?  Coconut flour absorbs a lot of liquid, which helps the texture of the meatloaf, and it is also high in fiber.  Carrots, celery, and onions are the nutrient-rich veggie stars that bring tons of healthy flavor to this dish.  Doesn’t it feel good to serve food that gives life and health to the ones you love?

 

Further Food Nutritionist Commentary:

This turkey meatloaf is a great dinner choice. It is loaded with protein from the turkey and healthy fat from the coconut oil to help keep you full and satisfied. Also, it is packed with veggies to help increase vitamin and mineral intake. This meatloaf is great for people following the paleo diet or anyone looking for a healthy, high protein and gluten-free dinner option.

1 Egg
1 teaspoon Sea Salt (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon Freshly Cracked Pepper
