Ingredients

  • 440 g bacon or fresh pork belly
  • 2 tbsp low sugar ketchup
  • 130 g mozzarella

Meatloaf

  • 1 kg ground pork or beef or a mix of both
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 (150g) onion
  • 1 tsp Himalayan salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp sage
  • 1 tbsp thyme
  • 1 tbsp oregano
  • 2 eggs
  • 30 ml almond milk (unsweetened)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 190C/375F.
  • Mince the onion and garlic.  Slice the mozzarella brick into small rectangles (this will be stuffed inside the meatloaf)
  • In a large bowl, mix the meatloaf ingredients together and knead for 1-2 minutes with your hands.
  • Line the Bundt pan with the bacon running it vertically up the sides of the ring and making sure that each opening is covered with bacon-y goodness.
  • Add half of the hamburger mixture to the pan over the bacon slices.
  • Place the cheese rectangles all around the ring over the hamburger.
  • Cover with the other half of the hamburger and make sure all of the cheese if fully covered.
  • Tightly wrap the hanging bacon slices over the meatloaf.
  • Brush a tablespoon of ketchup over the bacon and place it in the oven to bake for 50-60 minutes.
  • Take out of the oven, place a plate over the bundt mold and flip upside down. Watch out for the piping hot liquid.  I personally flipped mine over a baking pan so that the liquid couldn't fall out.
  • Brush another tbsp of ketchup over the bacon and place it back into the oven on the high rack for 2 minutes, just to let the ketchup sink in the bacon.
  • Take out of the oven and cut into 8 pieces.  The oozing cheese will be sooo yummy.  Feel free to eat it as is, or top with more ketchup or some tomato sauce :)
