This modern twist on a classic Meatloaf recipe means a slightly reduced meat content, and a definite increase in flavour. The addition of Spinach and beans ensures this meaty meal offers extra fibre and nutrients which will aid digestions and make this an overall healthy alternative to it’s traditional counterpart.
Not only is this Meatloaf recipe a healthy one, it is also super easy to make and can be cooked in a countertop oven slowly on a low heat. The addition of water to the bottom of the oven will ensure the top of the Meatloaf stays moist and doesn’t crack.
