Bacon Wrapped Keto Meatloaf

Meatloaf:

2 tbsp butter

1 (4 oz.) yellow onion, finely chopped

1½ lb ground beef or ground turkey or ground pork

½ cup heavy whipping cream

2 oz. (½ cup) cheddar cheese, shredded

1 egg, beaten

1 tbsp dried oregano or dried basil

1 tsp salt

½ tsp ground black pepper

7 oz. sliced bacon

Gravy:

1¼ cups heavy whipping cream

½ tbsp tamari soy sauce (optional)

Directions:

1️⃣  Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2️⃣  Over medium heat, melt the butter in a frying pan. Add the onion and fry until soft, but not browned, and then set aside to cool.
3️⃣  Mix the ground meat in a bowl. Add in the fried onion and all the other ingredients, except the bacon. Mix well, but avoid overworking it because this can make the end result too dense.
4️⃣  Form into a loaf and place into a greased baking dish. Wrap the loaf in bacon.
5️⃣  Bake in the middle of the oven for about 45 minutes. If the bacon begins to overcook before the meat is done, cover with aluminum foil and lower the heat a bit. If the bacon doesn’t appear to be completely done, broil the meatloaf for approximately 5 minutes.

Gravy and serving:

1️⃣ Save the juices that have accumulated in the baking dish, and use to make the gravy. Mix the juices and the cream in a smaller sauce pan.

2️⃣ Bring to a boil and lower the heat and let simmer for 10–15 minutes until it has the right consistency. If you want, use a little tamari soy sauce to taste.
