Garden Meatloaf - 17g Carbs, 2.3g Fiber

{Be cautious of the vegetable juice cocktail and the

ketchup since they can have high sodium and sugar. Be

sure to read the label or use one you are sure of.

Leave out the "1/4 tsp salt"... it will not be missed.

Take care, Gloria}

1 1/2 lb 95% lean ground beef

3/4 cup quick-cooking oats

3/4 cup finely chopped onion

1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper

1/2 cup grated carrot

1/2 cup vegetable juice cocktail (like V8)

bowl and mix well. Coat a 9x5-in meatloaf pan with cooking

spray and press the mixture into the pan to form a loaf.

Bake uncovered for 45 minutes. Spread the ketchup over

the meat loaf and bake for 30 additional minutes, or
