Bacon Meatloaf

This Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf with Smoky BBQ Sauce recipe has converted meatloaf-hating family members for many years now, it was one of the first recipes I created for Skinnymixers and I knew it deserved a place in The Healthy Mix V.

Topped with rich smoky BBQ sauce, this is so much more than your average meatloaf.

Notes

I used smoked streaky bacon.
You can prepare the sauce standalone to use with other dishes.
I used Thermobextas *amazing* tomato sauce recipe for my sauce, in which I substitute the raw honey with coconut sugar πŸ™‚
This is loosely inspired by the Womans Weekly BBQ Meatloaf.
