Ingredients

Scale

For the Meatloaf Base:

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup almond flour or crushed pork rinds
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

For the Filling:

  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp salt

For the Sauce:

  • 1 cup sugar-free marinara sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan or baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, gently mix ground beef, ground pork, eggs, almond flour, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Avoid overmixing.
  3. In another bowl, mix ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, parsley, garlic, and salt until smooth.
  4. Flatten the meat mixture into a rectangle on parchment paper, about 1/2-inch thick. Spread the cheese filling evenly, leaving a 1-inch border.
  5. Roll the meatloaf like a jelly roll, using the parchment paper to guide you. Pinch the seams to seal and transfer to the prepared pan, seam-side down.
  6. Bake uncovered for 40 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven, pour marinara sauce over the meatloaf, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for another 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  8. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Substitute almond flour with crushed pork rinds for zero-carb binding.
  • Add sun-dried tomatoes or spinach to the filling for extra flavor.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months
