It’s mini because mini things are more adorable. Therefore, you want them more. Want my meatloaf. Do it.
Guess who is back in town?! Sergio!! He’s been in training since he leaves for Afghanistan in 2 weeks. Boo. Anyways, he just got back into town after spending the weekend in Vegas. His friends surprised him with a trip there. So this is how it went down. His LA friends, who are gonna be bachelors til the day they die, lived it up and stayed out. The Colorado boys, well, they made it out until about 7pm. Way to represent Colorado men, way.to.go. Sergio on the other hand, a mix breed between a hipster in LA and meat head CO boy, went out on the town. Some things are better left unsaid. The whole point of this story though, is when Sergio got back into town from Vegas and did a workout Monday night, he puked 4 times. And dry heaved multiple times. It was hilarious. I never really thought puking was funny until Monday night.
This weekend is Sergio’s ‘See You Next Year’ party. He’s planning on getting me intoxicated on Saturday at the park. Here’s the thing. I swore off alcohol. Especially when it comes to drinking during daylight. We all know what happens when I consume alcohol during the day time. Bad things. Bad crying things.
I swear my friends aren’t alcoholics. I tend to exaggerate things. Kind of. Not really.
All I can think about is bacon lately. This is what I want to do. Put sunbutter on a stick of celery. Wrap some cooked bacon around the celery. And then eat it. It’s like grown up ants on a log. Not really, but kind of.
Pinterest is on overload with wedding jargon. I don’t even know if that’s the right word in this scenario, but it feels right. When I get home from a painful workout, and I’m lying on the floor of my living room, all I want to look at is food porn on pinterest. And it gives me wedding sh*t? Are you for real pinterest? I should be able to report those people pinning wedding day hair and pictures of their bridesmaids giggling. If I ever find a dude that’s stupid enough to marry me, I’m gonna make him cupcakes and elope. My mother will be infuriated. But I will be happy, because I have cupcakes to eat.

Buffalo Chicken Mini Meatloaf
- Prep Time: 5 mins
- Cook Time: 30 mins
- Total Time: 35 minutes
- Yield: 2-4 1x
Ingredients
- 1lb ground chicken
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons coconut flour or 1/2 cup almond flour/meal (I used coconut flour)
- 3–4 tablespoons hot sauce (I used Red Hot)
- 2 stalks of celery, diced
- 1/4 small yellow onion, diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon celery salt
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Place all ingredients in a bowl and use your hands to mix thoroughly.
- Plop mixture into two mini loaf pans OR one large loaf pan. You make the call my friend.
- Bake for 25-35 or until chicken is completely cooked through.
- I used the poke technique. Poke the meat, if it sinks in, like it’s uncooked, it probably is.
- Let cool.
- Eat.
- HOLY CRAP THAT WAS EASY!
I think I’m gonna try this as buffalo chicken burgers since I’m avoiding using my oven at all costs. I bet they’ll be yum-tastic.
Made this for dinner tonight and it was delicious. My husband and I finished the whole thing! Next time I think i’ll make a double batch 🙂
I feel so totally weird that I repin everything you post on Pinterest. I tried these as mini-muffin loaves and baked for 20 min. They were fantastic! Our 2 boys ate ’em up and hubby loved it! Thanks for being so creative so I don’t have to.
Can we be friends? Seriously.
Food > marriage.
This is probably one of the best versions of meatloaf I have ever had. My kids and wife even dug it. Well done.
Made this last night with ground turkey and it was delish! Anything buffalo, Red Hot and cayenne is right up my alley!
Made this last night- singular, large form (45-50 mins cooking) – and just heated up for lunch. I probably added 5 TBSP of Franks (“Original” – no bad ingredients, unlike the “Buffalo Wing”) to the recipe, and then poured more on the finished product. Awesome! And so easy!
Weddings are stupid. I actually told my dad that I was going to elope, and he said, “Atta girl.” I’m one of 4 girls; the man knows what’s up.
Celery/sunbutter/bacon = sounds amazing. I would totally eat that for a snack, and I bet my roommate would too. Thanks for your never-ending hilarity!
This is freaking amazing!! And you’re HI-LARIOUS!!!
I’m totally going to give this is try tonight! No onions though…can’t eat them…so I think I’ll sub bell peppers…..that should be good right?
PS…you have made Paleo so easy for me and I love it! Thank you….the recipes I’ve tried my boyfriend will even eat and he hates healthy food hahaha!!!! 🙂
