AIP Meatloaf
Description
The AIP Meatloaf recipe combines ground beef and pork with sautéed vegetables, including mushrooms, carrots, onions, and garlic, which add moisture and depth to the meat. The herbs—parsley and thyme—along with salt season the mixture gently. The meatloaf is baked in a loaf pan until cooked through, then topped with ketchup and finished under the broiler, providing a glossy, flavorful topping. The end result is a moist loaf with tender texture and a balanced savory taste.
This meatloaf can be served similarly to traditional versions, making it a mindful option for those adhering to the Autoimmune Protocol. It pairs well with simple sides and can be sliced thick or thin.
Notes suggest that ketchup can be substituted with BBQ sauce or caramelized onions. The recipe is also adaptable to form meatballs with a similar cooking time. Including a small amount of minced organ meat (up to 1/4 pound) can enrich flavor without overpowering the dish.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil Avocado, Coconut Oil or Lard is a fine substitute
- 1 pint mushrooms finely chopped
- 1 carrot peeled and grated
- 1 onion minced
- 4 garlic minced, cloves
- 1/4 cup parsley chopped
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons thyme or 1 teaspoon Dried Thyme, fresh
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1/2 cup ketchup see links in notes, AIP (Autoimmune Protocol
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In a skillet, heat the oil and sauté the mushrooms, onion, carrot, and garlic for about 5 minutes or until cooked through. Once finished cooking, set aside and let cool.
- In a large bowl mix the parsley, salt, and thyme. Add the meat and cooled vegetables to the bowl. Mix gently with your hands until just incorporated.
- Transfer the mixture to a 9 x 5 loaf pan, making sure to spread it evenly into the corners.
- Cook for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees. Remove from oven and carefully pour off liquid. Cover the meatloaf with the ketchup then put the loaf back in the oven for 10 minutes under the broiler.
- Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- Ketchup on top can be replaced with BBQ sauce or caramelized onions for variety.
- Try adding up to 1/4 pound minced organ meat to enhance flavor without overwhelming it.
- This mixture works well shaped as large meatballs; bake for about 30 minutes at 350°F on a baking sheet.
- A glass loaf pan is recommended for even cooking and ease of handling.
