INGREDIENTS

5.5 oz ground turkey

1 slice uncured bacon

2 tbsp sugar-free BBQ sauce

0.5 tbsp almond flour

0.5 large egg

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

  Finely dice the yellow onion and mince the garlic clove.

• 3

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

• 4

  Mix the ingredients by hand until just combined, taking care not to overwork the meat to ensure a tender texture.

• 5

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

• 6

  Brush 1 tablespoon of the sugar-free BBQ sauce evenly over the top and sides of the meatloaf.

• 7

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

• 8

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

• 9

  Increase the oven temperature to 400°F and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the bacon is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 10

  Allow the meatloaf to rest for 5 minutes before slicing to lock in the juices.
