Can I use turkey or chicken instead of ground beef and pork?
Yes. Turkey or chicken work, but they're leaner, so the meatloaf will be a bit drier. I'd add an extra tablespoon of olive oil to the mix.
What can I use instead of pork panko?
Almond flour or grated parmesan both work. Pork rinds give it a little crunch, but the others bind just as well.
How should I store leftover pizza meatloaf?
Fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container, or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat slices in the oven at 350°F so the cheese gets bubbly again.
Can I add other pizza toppings to this meatloaf?
Absolutely! Just chop them small and don't pile them on too thick or the meatloaf won't hold together.
Is this pizza meatloaf suitable for a keto diet?
Yes. 2.2g net carbs per serving. It's basically pizza without the crust.
I just discovered your recipes and they are all wonderful, simple and quick. I made a happy mistake in using ground Italian sausage instead of the ground pork. The result was a very dense meatloaf, but enjoyed by two. With so much left over I cut off the topping of cheese and pepperoni and meat loaf, crumbled it in a mini chopper to use as filling in fathead dough calzones and crumbled the 1 lb. of meatloaf and used it in the keto lasagna recipe. I can also use it for tacos, topping for pizza, use it in soups.
Oh yum.. this sounds amazing!
Nice change from regular meatloaf and a good pizza substitute.
