Chronic Caveman Meatloaf
This paleo meatloaf recipe has no flour, is packed with amazing flavor and is oh so satisfying on a cold and rainy day. I love making this because I can throw in all of the veggies in my fridge and create a brand new masterpiece with my leftovers. Some prefer to bake the meatloaf in a bread pan…I prefer to form it into a loaf on a baking pan so that the edges can crisp and form a little crust. Slather the sauce onto that meaty goodness and enjoy!
