Hawaiian-Style Meatloaf
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons ghee or clarified butter
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup yellow bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup orange bell pepper, diced
  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

  • 2 cups shredded zucchini
  • 1/2 cup Maple Barbecue Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon gluten-free tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon kosher sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. Cook the onion and bell peppers in the ghee over medium heat until the vegetables are beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, set aside and allow to cool.
  3. Place the remaining ingredients in a large bowl; add the sautéed vegetables. Gently, but thoroughly mix with your hands until well-combined. Gently form a loaf shape in a 7″ x 11″ glass baking dish. Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the internal temperatures reaches 160 F.
  4. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
