Easy Keto Mexican Meatloaf Recipes

KETO MEXICAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Lightly oil a baking pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Crush pork rinds in food processor. Alternatively, you can place them in a zip top bag and roll them with a rolling pin or the unopened can of tomatoes. You want the consistency to be pretty fine.
• Place the pork rinds in a large mixing bowl and add the tomatoes with green chilis, including the juice. Let soak for 10 minutes.
• Add the beef, eggs, cheese and spices. Mix with your hands until everything is incorporated. If the mixture is dry and doesn't hold it's shape when you press it, add the beef broth.
• Place the mixture in the prepared baking pan, shaping into a loaf. To make a nice, smooth top, place a little water in the empty mixing bowl. Wet your hands and lightly rub the top, smoothing out any rough spots.
• Bake the loaf for 45 minutes, or until the beef reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
• If desired, top with additional cheese and switch your oven to broil. Place the loaf under the broiler for 3 minutes, or until cheese is melted and starts to turn golden brown.
• Let your meatloaf rest for 10 minutes. Slice and serve!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F and prepare a baking sheet by covering it in aluminum foil. Spray with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
• Add onion, garlic cloves and green peppers to a food processor and process until they are finely minced. Can also do this by hand if you wish but pieces should be very small.
• Add this mixture to a large mxing bowl along with the ground beef and pork, egg, almond flour, spices and 1/4 cup of salsa.
• Mix well and then form into an oval loaf on the baking sheet. Use the remaining salsa (1/4 cup) and spread evenly over meatloaf.
• Bake for 30 minutes until the meat is cooked through. Note cooking time may vary depending on how you shape your loaf. Mine are rather long and thin so it only took 30 minutes.
• Take out of the oven and sprinkle cheddar cheese if using on top. Place back into the oven and bake another 5 minutes until the cheese has melted. Take out and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Garnish with green onions if using and serve with extra salsa or sour cream if you wish. Other additions could be cilantro, jalapenos, black olives or hot sauce.
