Keto Barbecue Meatloaf

Meatloaf always takes me back to my childhood. My mom would cook dinner for us most nights and meatloaf was a go to. I loved her take on the classic dish – and even today, it’s still one of my favorites.

This recipe sends me back to those days, but we’ve taken it up a level to help you stick to the keto diet. Barbecue sauce is a favorite among people, but more times than not it is loaded down with sugar in some form.

That’s the stuff we’re trying to stay away from on keto.

A delicious sugar-free barbecue sauce comes together quickly and tops a delicious meatloaf for a keto meal you won’t soon forget. Serve with some mashed cauliflower on the side for a filling meal that will leave you feeling full and satiated.

This makes a great dinner you can have on the table in less than two hours. And if you’re lucky, they’ll even be leftovers for the next morning. Fingers crossed!
