SKINNY MEATLOAF
Are you looking for a super yummy, quick dinner to make? If you haven't tried my skinny meatloaf yet, I think you're going to love it! It's low in calories, very moist, and has a divinely rich sweet ketchup glaze. It's a whole lot skinnier than most meatloaf recipes because I'm using extra lean ground beef, homemade whole wheat bread crumbs, and egg whites. By the way, making your own crumbs is really simple to do. Each serving, has 214 calories, 5 grams of fat. Any leftovers make great sandwiches!
