INGREDIENTS

6 oz ground turkey (93% lean)

0.5 slice center-cut bacon

1 large egg

0.5 tbsp almond flour

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

2 tbsp sugar-free BBQ sauce

0.5 tsp smoked paprika

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a small baking dish with parchment paper.

• 2

  Finely dice the yellow onion and mince the garlic clove.

• 3

  In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, almond flour, diced onion, minced garlic, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Mix the ingredients by hand until just combined, ensuring you do not overwork the meat to keep the texture light.

• 5

  Shape the mixture into a compact rectangular loaf and place it in the center of the prepared baking dish.

• 6

  Lay the bacon slices over the top of the meatloaf, tucking the ends underneath the loaf to secure them.

• 7

  Brush 1 tablespoon of the sugar-free BBQ sauce evenly over the bacon-wrapped top.

• 8

  Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 9

  Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce over the top during the last 5 minutes of baking for a tacky, glossy finish.

• 10

  Remove from the oven and let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thick pieces.
