Meat-Lite Meatloaf

A clear glass baking dish holds a partially sliced meatloaf topped with red sauce, made with less meat for a lighter meal. Two slices are served on a white plate next to the dish. Nearby are utensils, a small bowl of ground black pepper, and an empty glass. MyFitnessPal Blog

You don’t have to go all-out vegetarian to eat less meat, and this recipe is the perfect example. You only need a half-pound of meat for this updated version of meatloaf. Hearty lentils and savory mushrooms combine with a little lean ground beef for a healthier take on the comfort food classic. If you’d like a spicier kick in the ketchup-based topping, use chipotle chili powder instead of regular chili powder or add a pinch or two of cayenne pepper.
