Recipe Notes

Substitutions/Tips:

*Jazz it up by adding topping your meatloaf with topping your meatloaf with 2 tsps. of either dijon mustard, sugar-free barbecue or tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce or even sugar-free ketchup!

*Bulgur is a great substitute for bread crumbs but if you’re in a hurry you can use cooked quinoa (1 cup).

*Make the bulgur a day ahead of time so when you get home from work you just need to throw everything together and sit back and relax while dinner cooks.
