Goat Cheese and Spanish Meatloaf



You pretty much can make meatloaf with anything. Why not goat cheese and spinach? 

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 60 minutes

Nutritional Options: low carb, keto, paleo

Servings: 3 adults

Ingredients:
  1. 1 pound grass fed beef
  2. 1/2 onion
  3. 4 cloves garlic
  4. handful of organic spinach
  5. a small tube of goat cheese (I used herbed goat cheese) 
  6. 2 tablespoons italian seasoning
  7. 6 turns of himalayan rock salt 
  8. 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  9. 1 egg 
  10. 1/4 cup pasture raised whole milk 





Directions:
  1. preheat Oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit  
  2. mince garlic ( I always do this first)
  3. chop up onion and slightly beat egg
  4. combine meat, egg, garlic, egg, onion, milk, and spices
  5. lay out a piece of cling wrap and spread meat 
  6. spread goat cheese in the center and add spinach
  7. use cling wrap to roll meatloaf together
  8. place in pan and form into a loaf- make sure to close ends
  9. place in oven and bake for 45 minutes (grass fed beef is naturally leaner, don't overcook) 





Tips:
  • during cold and flu season I cook with more onions and garlic. I actually made this meatloaf with an entire onion
  • the original recipe had a tomato based topping. I omitted it to have fewer carbs, I wanted to save them for dessert! 
  • I found this recipe on the blog "Wicked Stuffed" but I modified it to fit our needs. 
  • the next time I'm going to use Blue Cheese!
