INGREDIENTS

5 oz ground turkey

2 slice center cut bacon

1 tbsp almond flour

1 large egg

2 tbsp sugar-free BBQ sauce

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

0.5 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 large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, almond flour, egg, diced onion, minced garlic, smoked paprika, sea salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the BBQ sauce.

• 3

  Gently mix the ingredients by hand until just combined, taking care not to overwork the meat to maintain a tender texture.

• 4

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

• 5

  Drape the bacon slices over the top of the loaf, overlapping them slightly and tucking the ends underneath the meat.

• 6

  Brush the remaining tablespoon of BBQ sauce evenly over the top of the bacon-wrapped loaf.

• 7

  Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the bacon has become golden and crispy.

• 8

  Allow the meatloaf to rest for 5 minutes before slicing to ensure the juices redistribute throughout the loaf.
