Sometimes, you need a quick and easy dinner to throw together that cooks while you help with homework, clean the kitchen, or tackle other aspects of life. This easy gluten-free meatloaf is your answer for a quick win and filling dinner.
Here’s the thing about meatloaf. Not only is it filling but you can pair it with just about any vegetable to make a well rounded meal. Sure, as kids we avoided it with a passion but it’s actually a very underrated, easy gluten-free meal to make.
Dairy-Free & Gluten-Free Meatloaf
The only ingredients in the meatloaf you need to be careful of are the bread crumbs and the ketchup. While it’s not common for ketchup to contain gluten, it is possible, depending on the brand. On the other hand, bread crumbs are an ingredient that you need to be careful of. The Schar Gluten Free Bread Crumbs are a staple in our pantry. We use them to cook all the time, and they are not seasoned, so they work for more than just one or two dishes.
In order to keep the meatloaf dairy-free, I also used unsweetened almond milk. However, if dairy-free is not a concern for you, regular whole milk works just as well. You will not need to modify the amount.
