INGREDIENTS

5 oz ground turkey (93% lean)

2 slices turkey bacon

1 large egg

1 tbsp almond flour

2 tbsp unsweetened BBQ sauce

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

0.25 tsp smoked paprika

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a small baking dish with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

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

• 3

  Mix the ingredients by hand until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

• 4

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

• 5

  Brush 1 tablespoon of the unsweetened BBQ sauce evenly over the top of the meatloaf.

• 6

  Lay the turkey bacon slices across the top of the loaf, tucking the excess ends underneath to secure them.

• 7

  Bake for 25 minutes, then remove from the oven to brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce over the bacon.

• 8

  Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the bacon is golden and crisp.

• 9

  Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing to ensure it stays juicy.
