NOT YOUR MAMA'S MEATLOAF - LOW CARB & BEEFED UP



Not Your Mama's Meatloaf - Low Carb & Beefed Up image

I saw this made on Foodtv. I'm not big on meatloaf but DH is so I thought I'd give it a try. It is quite tasty and DH really enjoyed it. I think this could be easily altered for different flavors or cuisines. It is supposed to be a healthier version of the one your mother made. I made this without the prosciutto.
