Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease the inside of a 9”x5” baking pan and set aside.
Place the potatoes with the skin on in a pot of boiling water and boil for 30 to 40 minutes or until they can be easily pierced through with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together the eggs with the red onion, grated apple, onion powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and almond flour in a large mixing bowl.
Add the meat to the bowl and gently incorporate it with your hands. Transfer mixture to the greased pan.
Bake at 350 F for 30 minutes. Remove it from the oven and spoon or brush the BBQ sauce over the top.
Return the meatloaf to the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes or until it has set. Remove it from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 10 minutes before removing and slicing.
While the meatloaf sets, remove the potatoes from the pot of water if you haven't done so already, and mash them with the almond milk, salt, pepper, and parsley. Transfer the potatoes to waiting meal prep containers
Remove the meatloaf from the pan carefully and transfer to a cutting board. Slice it and transfer the slices to meal prep containers, along with the mashed potatoes. Serve also with steamed green beans or broccoli, if desired.
