Ingredients

• 2 pounds ground beef
• 0.5 pounds ground pork
• 12 slices bacon
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 1 cup onion, finely chopped
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup almond flour
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy clean-up.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef and ground pork.

Step 4

Add the eggs, chopped onion, minced garlic, almond flour, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped parsley, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, dry mustard, and tomato paste to the bowl.

Step 5

Using your hands, gently mix all the ingredients until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Step 6

Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place it in the center of the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Wrap the meatloaf with the slices of bacon, tucking the ends underneath the loaf to secure them.

Step 8

Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C). The bacon should be crispy and golden brown.

Step 9
