My Keto meatloaf is low carb and full of flavor! Not only that, it's packed with healthy low carb vegetables, and it's gluten free too so it's a great option for the whole family.

Preheat your oven to 350°F
Finely chop the onions and mushrooms.
Grate the zucchini, then squeeze it in a sieve over a bowl, or by hand, to remove excess moisture.
Saute the onions in the oil until the onions are soft but not browned, about five minutes.
Break the two eggs into a bowl and whisk together with a fork.
Crumble the ground beef into the bowl along with the cooked onions, mushrooms, zucchini, garlic, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, oregano, thyme, mustard powder, apple cider vinegar, and add the beaten eggs. Mix the keto meatloaf mixture really thoroughly until well combined
Put the mixture into a loaf pan and spread it out evenly. If you are using low carb ketchup you can apply that over the top of the meatloaf. Alternatively you can shape it into a loaf and place it directly on a foil or parchment lined sheet pan.
Put the loaf pan onto a sheet pan (in case any juices come over the sides) and bake for about 1hr - 1hr 15 mins.
Let the meatloaf cool in the loaf pan for 15 minutes and then remove it. I like to put it on paper towels to absorb any excess fat.
Nutrition - Assumes eight servings per meatloaf. Does not include low carb ketchup topping.
Zucchini - I wanted to add some extra nutrition and vegetables while keeping it low carb. It's worth it to take the time to squeeze out the excess liquid because it can cause the meatloaf to be more crumbly, though it will still taste good.
Eggs - if you have to omit the eggs the meatloaf will still cook up properly and taste good but it will be very crumbly because the egg acts as binder.
Low Carb Breadcrumb Replacement - In traditional meatloaf you would usually add milk soaked breadcrumbs. As this is a Keto recipe I've obviously omitted them. The purpose of breadcrumbs is to lighten the texture of the meatloaf and add moisture, I think the addition of mushrooms, onions, and zucchini does this perfectly.
