Keto Meatloaf
After making my Low Carb Air Fryer Meatloaf, I wanted to find new ways to change it up while staying within my macros. The original version was incredibly basic (which my kids loved).
So, to change it up, I updated the spices and added cheese and caramelized onions on top. This keto French onion meatloaf is made with almond flour instead of breadcrumbs and flavored with French onion soup mix.
Even after adding onions and all those spices, there are still just 4 grams of net carbs in each serving. And this recipe makes six servings, so it’s plenty for your family dinner.
Is French Onion Soup Mix Keto Friendly?
It’s a good idea to always check labels before you buy pre-made ingredients, like French onion soup mix. According to Lipton’s website, There are 4 grams of carbs in one tablespoon.
So I suggest finding a keto-friendly packet or making your own. But once you fine one that works for you, there are so many things you can make with it (including this meatloaf).
So, if you love the flavor of this keto French onion meatloaf, make a few other recipes with these ingredients. My Keto Creamy TikTok French Onion Pasta is seriously comforting and Keto French Onion Deviled Egg Salad makes the perfect lunch.
For anyone who loves chicken, you can’t beat my zesty Keto French Onion Chicken Casserole.
What To Eat With Meatloaf
Serve your favorite side dishes with this hearty meatloaf. Start out with a copycat Cheesecake Factory Salad.
Then, add some vegetables to the table. Keto roasted garlic turnips and green beans will taste perfect with the French onion meatloaf.
Then, don’t forget about dessert! My Keto Gingerbread Muffins With Icing or my Low Carb Cranberry Crisp will both taste delightful with the onions and cheese.
Meatloaf Meal Prep
Add this meatloaf to your weekly meal prep and you’ll have a low-carb lunch that you’ll actually look forward to! Store the leftover meatloaf in an airtight food storage container.
For the best results, eat it within three days. To make it last longer, you can freeze the meatloaf, too.
Wrap the meatloaf in plastic wrap and store it in a freezer-safe food storage bag. Keep it frozen for a maximum of six months.
