What the fudge is up with moths invading my household? Is it “when spring has sprung, the moths will come” season? I don’t get it. But I hate it. I turn on my lamp on night to read my book and a swarm of them (meaning two) fly at the light like they are seizing. So rude. I’m trying to read my book on a Saturday night at 9pm, and these moths are acting like the own the place. And then they are seizing so much, they hit me in the face and proceed on to hit every other wall, object, and light around every room. Is that why they die? Because they give themselves so many concussions? Do I just sound like a complete idiot throughout this entire paragraph? I’ll move on. You suck moths.
So now that I’ve cursed the day a moth was born, I’m sure you’re wondering what I was reading on a Saturday night. No? Cool. Whatever. I’ll tell you anyways. I was reading the second book of the Hunger Games trilogy, “Catching Fire” and seriously could not put it down. I read it Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday morning and afternoon. All done with it now. It.Was.Awesome. Every single chapter was great. If you disagree, I curse the day you were born. Jesus, I’m kidding. Don’t leave my website. Is it weird I’m excited for Regionals to be over just so I can start the third book and have more time to commit to it? Totes weird. At least I’m committing myself to something since I can’t seem to make a commitment to any human being. Kidding again. My roommate Laura and I are committed to each other. Roommate for life.
Guess what? I’m super excited. My girlfriend Sam comes into town tomorrow and is staying with me over Regionals weekend! YAY! I’m even cleaning the house for her. Like vacuuming our carpet and sweeping the floors. I’m even going to scrub the shower. Big things going on here in the tres amigas household. I just made that up. And it was stupid. Sorry guys. Disappoint is on your face, I’m sure of it.

Hi Juli,
Hi from Australia!! Love your site and your recipes are awesome. I made this meatloaf and it turned out dry….grrrrrrr ..can anyone help..what the hell did I do wrong? I used free range chicken breast mince, could this be the problem…not enough fat in it? Man..I can’t live on Apple Cinnamon muffins forever!
Thanks 🙂
Will it work if coconut flour is substituted for almond flour?
it’s not exactly the same, but you could try using a couple tablespoons of coconut flour. 3 would most likely work
My husband declared this the best meatloaf he’s ever eaten. Thank you!
If I am not on a Paleo diet (but this sounds delicious!) will regular whole wheat flour work ok or not at all?
I’m sure it would, but I’m not sure what the conversion would be
What if I don’t have a meat loaf pan, would muffins tins work with this recipe?
absolutely!
Sorry one more thing, could I use white flour instead of almond flour?
I made this into meatballs and they were TO DIE FOR!! I could hardly contain myself and not eat the ENTIRE batch! You’re food rocks, you rock!! Oh and we hung out once…just sayin’..NBD. Anyway, I love your food and your posts! Definitely my favorite part of the day!!
Made this tonight with ground turkey…yum!! Took a little longer to cook though…more like 35-40 mins.
Made this today and it is AWESOME! I had to make a few substitutions based on what was in my cupboard. I halved the recipe, used diced onion instead of onion powder and panko crumbs instead of almond flour (which I’m sure isn’t paleo, but what can ya do, eh?)
What a nice, simple, and very tasty recipe! I mixed 1 tbsb of flax meal with 2 tbsps of hot water to substitute for the egg and it worked beautifully. First meatloaf in a really long time -Thanks!!
I loved the loaf and I had leftovers as a chicken salad with mayo. Even better. I think!
