Welcome to Live Well by Raquel, where I share easy and wholesome recipes to nourish your body and mind.
Gluten Free Beef Meatloaf was not served for dinner with an Italian Mum, we never ate Meatloaf! I actually had never tried it until a month ago when Scott decided to cook dinner and one of his Nanna’s dishes. We googled for recipes which all contained gluten! But as you know, I love to change any recipe to be gluten free and the magic begins.
Gluten Free Beef Meatloaf is definitely a crowd pleaser! My neice and nephews request this for their family dinner at our house. Its so simple and delicious – it really is!


Why I Love This Recipe
I love this recipe because its takes 10 minutes to prep in one bowl and 30 minutes to cook without even checking. I love the comfort it provides served with creamy mash potatoes and crispy brussell sprouts!
Ingredients
- MINCE: You can choose beef or pork or both!
- GARLIC: A must! Add it to taste, but I like plenty.
- WHITE ONION: For a sweet taste
- ROSEMARY: A suttle herb with so much impact
- FREE RANGE EGGS: Always!
- TOMATO SAUCE/KETCHUP and GLUTEN FREE GRAVY: A rich flavour. Store bought.
- PASSATA: The glossy sauce that brings this dish together!
- TO SERVE: Creamy Mash and Greens such as Brussell Sprouts/Green Beans/Wilted Spinach
Instructions

- Let’s get cooking! Preheat oven 180c. Place a bowl ready for mixing and a large ceramic baking tray for the baking
- In the bowl, mix all the ingredients except the passata and gravy
- Then mould a large log of meat into the tray. Pack it in firmly to ensure the meatloaf sticks together whilst cooking.
- Pour the passatta around the meatloaf. Seaon with salt and pepper. Cook for 25 minutes.
- Then add the gluten free gravy powder into the passata sauce and mix through, this will develop beautifully for the last 5 minutes of cooking
- Once cooked (test by cutting into the middle), serve the meatloaf with the delicious sauce drizzled over the top. You can never have enough sauce!
