So I got back from Nashville the afternoon of Saturday July 30th and immediately we had friends over for dinner! The original plan was to go to the lake, but the weather didn’t permit, so we stayed in for dinner and a movie with Desi and Tristan!

Desi and Tristan have been longtime friends now that we have enjoyed home cooked meals with on many occasions! Of course when they heard about our HC3 Trim diet, and our inability to drink or eat so many things they were quite leery about sticking around for dinner. But Paul, who is an amazing improvisational home cook, whipped together the most amazing dinner that we were all able to enjoy! Of course we cooked up some extras for Desi and Tristan, but the meatloaf was definitely the STAR of the evening!

So here is a quick run-down of our HC3 approved Meatloaf!

Ingredients:

    • Extra Lean Ground Beef (1-2 lbs depending on how many ppl you are serving)
    • One can of Original Rotel
    • Vidalia Onion (1/4 to 1/2 an onion chopped)
    • Raw Spinach (1-1.5 cups chopped)
    • Fresh Cilantro – key for that awesome flavor (1 cup chopped)
    • 2 table spoons Ground Pepper
    • 1 table spoon Ground Sea Salt
    • 2 – 4 Fresh Garlic cloves finely chopped
    • 2 table spoons Fresh Garlic Powder
    • 2 table spoons dill seasoning (be generous)
    • 2 table spoons thyme seasoning

Mix it all together in a mixer or bowl, whichever suits you!

Put into a non-stick meatloaf pan or Pyrex dish, and bake at 300-325 for about 40-45 minutes. Keep an eye on it to be safe because those temps and time are variable depending!

And voilà! It was absolutely delicious and we had a side of asparagus and Desi and Tristan also were treated with Paul’s awesome mashed potatoes! It was a success and better than any meatloaf I have had before! It was healthy and we didn’t even need ketchup! Oh and note – it had no eggs or bread crumbs!

Hope you are able to try it!
