Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Extra-lean ground beef (96% lean)
- 1 cup Zucchini, grated
- 1 cup Carrot, grated
- 1 cup Baby spinach, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.75 cup Panko breadcrumbs (whole wheat if possible)
- 1 large Egg, lightly beaten
- 0.25 cup Low-sugar ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Additional low-sugar ketchup (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, grated carrot, chopped baby spinach, diced onion, and minced garlic. Mix well.
Add the ground beef, panko breadcrumbs, beaten egg, 1/4 cup low-sugar ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the vegetable mixture.
Using clean hands or a large spoon, gently mix everything together until well-combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and press it down gently to create an even surface.
Spread the additional 2 tablespoons of low-sugar ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Let the meatloaf rest in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm alongside steamed vegetables or a side salad for a complete meal.
