Traditional meatloaf is not a keto-friendly food because it uses bread crumbs and ketchup, which contains too many carbs. Additionally, breadcrumbs contain gluten and this is hard to digest for many people. Store-bought ketchup is a hidden source of high-fructose syrup.
The meat is seasoned with garlic, onion, salt, pepper, tomato paste and basic seasoning. You can reduce the amount of tomato paste used in this recipe to get even lower net carb per serving.
When looking for tomato paste, make sure there’s no added sugar or other artificial ingredients. You can make tomato sauce from home by combining one cup of diced tomato with half a teaspoon of salt, black pepper, oregano, basil and parsley. Simply cook and simmer for a couple of minutes to get the desired thickness.
You can also add low carb homemade ketchup and Italian seasoning on top when baking to enhance the flavor.
This keto beef and pork meatloaf is very tender, so it can be a little difficult to cut. Just make sure you let it rest for ten minutes before slicing. It’s better to use a sharp serrated bread knife for slicing.
