This Keto meatloaf recipe, stuffed with mozzarella cheese, is easy to make, absolutely delicious, and super tender. This low-carb and Keto-friendly dinner idea is a delightful take on healthy comfort food.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with the chopped onion.
Add in beaten egg and the low carb breadcrumbs.
Add garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
Add tomato paste.
Using your hands (with or without gloves) Mix all of the ingredients together until fully combined.
Form the meat mixture into two smaller oval shaped loaves. This will help them cook more quickly and evenly.
Make a divet down the center of each oval loaf of meat. Place ½ cup of mozzarella cheese into the center of each meatloaf, and close the extra meat up over it, so that the cheese is stuffed into the center of the loaves.
Add each meatloaf to a loaf pan and spray with a non-stick spray. I like coconut oil spray.
Top each of the meatloaves with a ¼ cup of marinara sauce.
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, and top each one with half of the remaining mozzarella cheese. Return them to the oven and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the meat is cooked throughout.
Recipe Notes
For ground beef, the internal temperature should be at least 160°F (71°C).Let it rest for 30 minutes before slicing with a serrated bread knife. (As it cools down, the meat forms better, making it easier to cut.)
