Day 23 - Mini Paleo Meat Loaf

Meat + veggies are paleo fundamentals. In this recipe, we pack mini meat loaf with herbs and spices to bring together an easy, quick, and delicious food to go.  Great for lunch, dinner, or a snack, these literally are the closest thing to a 'man muffin'.

What you need:
  • 2lb of ground beef, turkey, chicken - whatever you like
  • chopped fresh cilantro - handful
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1/2 teaspoon coriander
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 to 2 cups of finely chopped veggies - I used a zucchini, onion and carrots
  • salt and peppers
Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • Grease muffin tins in coconut oil
  • Mix all ingredients until well combined
  • Form mixture into 12 balls/loafs and place in muffin tin
  • Bake for 20-30 minutes - cut one in half to make sure its cooked

Recommended to us by our friend Ariel, she runs her own holistic nutritional consulting practice and she is as smart as she is talented.  This recipe makes about 10-12 and it may just be my new favourite dish. Enjoy!
