  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1/4 cup low-sugar marinara sauce
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/4 cup keto Caesar dressing
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and lightly grease a muffin tin.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, diced pepperoni, 1/2 cup mozzarella, marinara sauce, egg, almond flour, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Divide the mixture evenly among 8 muffin cups and press down gently to shape.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella over the tops of the meatloaves.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
  • While the meatloaves bake, place the chopped romaine in a serving bowl and set aside.
  • Remove the meatloaves from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.
  • Toss the romaine with the Caesar dressing and Parmesan just before serving.

merknader

Use full-fat mozzarella so the meatloaves hold together without added binders. If you prepare the salad ahead, keep the dressing separate until serving to avoid soggy leaves. Leftovers reheat well in a 350-degree oven for 8 minutes, which helps the cheese on top stay melty.
