Cheesy chicken meatloaf
Meatloaf is a favourite with kids and adults alike, and when cooked at home can be included in your meal plan when you’re on the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge.
This mildly-flavoured, tasty meatloaf recipe creates a great budget-friendly meal that is simple to make after a busy day.
With a twist on the traditional meatloaf, this version is made with lean chicken mince instead of beef. Choose to serve with mashed sweet potato, steamed greens or a side salad.

Ingredients
|
|
- Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius and spray a little olive oil cooking spray into a loaf pan.
- In a bowl, combine the chicken mince, garlic, mustard, onion, paprika, egg, three quarters of the cheese and cracked pepper.
- Mix to combine and then spoon into your greased pan. With your hands, push the mince mixture into the pan so it is compacted tightly and smooth and even on top.
- Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is browned.
- Remove from the oven and cover the top with the tomato paste, the remainder of the cheese and the rosemary.
- Bake for a further 10-15 minutes minutes, until cooked through and browned on top.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving with your favourite healthy side dish like steamed green vegetables or salad.
