Meatloaf- GAPS Approved
Meatloaf is probably the easiest thing to make when in a pinch. Everyone loves it, it’s highly nutritious and, if the batch is doubled, is easy to reheat for another meal.

In a large bowl mix whatever meats are available. This recipe uses three pounds of ground venison, three pounds of ground pastured beef.
Add four small chopped onions, 5 large garlic cloves, three pastured eggs, 1/3 of a cup of finely ground almond flour, salt and pepper to taste.
*This recipe is an easy way to hide ground organ meats like liver, heart or others. It also makes great meatballs and hamburgers.
Mix together all the ingredients.
Tightly pack the mixture into a glass 9 x 13 pan and/or a bread loaf pan – depending on how much mixture you have. This recipe fills both pans.
Spread tomato sauce on top of the meat.
Cook at 375 degrees for one hour or until cooked through.

Why say everyone likes meat? It’s disgusting for me.
To clarify: you used 6 lbs of meat in total? Thank you.
Yes
Is it not necessary to soak the almonds if you blanch them (followed the link for the almond flour)? I got the impression that we had to make our own almond flour because we had to soak the almonds first. I’m on stage 4 of GAPS intro and planning to make my first almond flour loaf this week. Thanks for the recipe. 🙂
This is needed in the very beginning for very sensitive people. After you have passed the time of hypersensitivity, it’s not necessary. This is only usually the case in early stage 3 when nut butters and nuts are introduced.
