So, meatloaf. A bad one is dense, bland, kind of pasty, and just all around gross. This version is different! One of my secrets is adding in other stuff like onions and spinach to increase the water content, which adds steam while it cooks, which makes for a lighter and fluffier loaf.
The almond meal makes this gluten free, but I also find that it makes the loaf a little lighter because the traditional breadcrumbs and milk can add to the pastiness.
Basically, this meatloaf is a lighter meat and lots of veggies and aromatics held together with just enough egg and almond meal to make it a “loaf.”
I top mine with ketchup, but if you’re watching your sugar, tomato paste or sugar-free ketchup also work really well. My kids love BBQ sauce, so I’ll top one or two of the mini loaves with that instead of ketchup to suit their tastes.

One note about how I make these loaves: I make them as mini loaves because they cook so much faster individually. If you like a traditional meatloaf made in an actual loaf pan, this recipe also cooks well in a pan, but it takes quite a bit longer. Still delicious either way!
