This was really good! One of the better meatloaf's I've tried and made. The seasoning was perfect and it was moist and savory. 5 stars!

I've only made a couple meatloafs in my time but this one was by far the best. I didn't have coconut cream concentrate so I substituted the 1/2 C water with coconut milk. I'll definitely be making this again!

We are grain-free, gluten-free. What could be used instead of the bread-crumbs? Normally when I make meatloaf, I add some shredded cheese. Or could coconut flour be used? If so, how much? Thanks for any ideas.

We have a GF meatloaf recipe here: http://www.freecoconutrecipes.com/recipe_Coconut_Flour_Meatloaf.htm. But if you wanted to try to make this one GF start out with about 1/4-13 cup of coconut flour and add another egg or two, depending on how the mixture looks.

You can also add quinoa flakes in place of bread crumbs for GF.

I also just purchased Gluten-free bread crumbs, so I imagine those would also work??
