Delicious KETO Turkey Meatloaf Recipe

Eating the Keto diet made me revamp many of my weeknight recipes. Here's one I modified from a turkey meatloaf recipe I often make. Check out my Italian Meatloaf post if you want a non-Keto meatloaf recipe.

Using dark meat in a meatloaf gives you more fat and helps the turkey stay juicy.  I added bacon to this Keto Turkey Meatloaf recipe to add even more flavor and fat. I tend to enjoy using the Italian flavorings in my meatloaf, maybe because I am Italian and these flavors remind me of my youth. You can use different herbs if you want.

Keto Turkey Meatloaf Ingredients

Below are the easy ingredients for this keto-friendly recipe.

1 lb ground turkey dark meat, if possible
½ cup of grated romano cheese
½ cup of mozzarella shredded
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
One tablespoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon dried basil
One tablespoon oregano (Affiliate Link) dried
2 eggs
½ cup almond flour or more if too wet
1 pack of sugar-free bacon
2 tablespoon sliced black olives
Salt and pepper to taste

Keto Turkey Meatloaf Instructions

1. Combine all the ingredients but the bacon and mix well. Form the mixture into a loaf and set aside. Wash your hands.

2. Make the bacon into a Lattice pattern on a lined cookie sheet (Affiliate Link). Watch this video from the Food Network on how to do it.

3. Add the formed loaf to the lattice and wrap the bacon around the sides and top of the turkey loaf. See the image below to see how I did it. I wrapped it around and then added an extra piece to finish off the bottom because my bacon didn't reach all the way around. 

4. Turn over the lattice and loaf and place on the lined cookie sheet (Affiliate Link). I like to use a plastic cutting board, which we use for cutting meat.

5. Bake for 45 minutes to one hour or until the internal temperature is 165 degrees.

6. Let rest on the baking sheet (Affiliate Link) for 15 - 20 minutes. It's normal for the mozzarella to be spread on parchment paper (Affiliate Link).

Here is the finished dish. If the cheese melts on the cookie sheet (Affiliate Link), that's OK. Be sure to watch it so it doesn't burn. Putting parchment paper (Affiliate Link) on your cookie sheet (Affiliate Link) will help it not adhere to the sheet.
