Low Carb Cheeseburger Meatloaf

Low Carb Cheeseburger Meatloaf is delicious comfort food with all the flavors of a juicy cheeseburger without all of the carbs.

It’s time for the winter edition of Freaky Friday!  If you’re not familiar with Freaky Friday, it’s a recipe swap that some of my blogger friends and I participate in once each season.   My friend, Michaela, from An Affair From The Heart secretly assigns each one of us another person’s blog.  We each pick a recipe from our assigned blog to cook and then share on our blog, keeping it a secret until today.  What’s so fun is having the chance to try out another blogger’s recipe and then share it with our own readers, introducing you to some great blogs!

This time I was assigned to Sandra’s blog, The Foodie Affair.  Her blog is a fantastic resource for low carb recipes.  If you’re looking for low carb recipes, she has so many to choose from!  As I was browsing through her blog to choose my recipe, a number of dishes jumped out at me like Low Carb Biscuits and  Gravy Instant Pot Chicken Soup  and Pork Chops with Mushroom Cream Sauce Skillet Meal.  But the recipe that really stood out to me was her Low Carb Cheeseburger Meatloaf.

That’s the recipe I had to make.  It sounded like great comfort food and a guilt-free way to enjoy all the flavors of a cheese burger.  And let me tell you, this low carb cheeseburger meatloaf does not disappoint!  It tastes just like a cheese burger, you won’t even miss the bun.  Mustard and dill pickle relish give the meatloaf a nice tanginess and cheddar cheese adds so much delicious cheesy flavor.  To finish it off, a little bacon helps to keep it nice and juicy and adds a hint of smokiness.

So what are you waiting for, go check out the Foodie Affair for yourself, along with the rest of my friend’s blogs, just click on the links at the bottom of the post.
