Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion until it's translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, sautéed onions and garlic, beaten eggs, almond flour, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, chopped parsley, and half of the canned diced tomatoes.
Mix all ingredients together gently using your hands until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix as it can make the meatloaf dense.
Shape the mixture into a loaf, approximately 9x5 inches, and place it in a lightly greased baking dish.
Spoon the remaining canned diced tomatoes over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
