Increase heat to 425 and bake an additional 10 minutes and then spread the remaining sauce over the meatloaf.
Chrystal
Thanks for sharing!
Best,
Chrystal
Missy
Hi, why did this comment for the 425 degrees come up? it is just a suggestion from one of your viewers?
Chrystal
I think they were suggesting that if you want sauce on top, to pull it out of the oven, spread the sauce, and then bake it at 425 to give it that sticky top.
Gina
I don't have a zucchini right now and want to make this recipe. Is there replacement you would suggest?
Chrystal
Hi Gina,
You can either leave it out, or you can use chopped mushrooms or 1/4 cup finely shredded carrot. Just make sure to update your carb count if you are counting carbs.
Best,
Chrystal
Erin Jones
Mine came out VERY wet, fell apart when I cut it. Any ideas of why?
Chrystal
It could be that the zucchini you used had a higher water content. Next time press the zucchini between paper towels to remove some of the water.
Best,
Chrystal
Maureen
Can you double this recipe successfully?
Chrystal
Yes, but you may want to use two pans to cook it, so it's cooked through. If you use a larger pan, you'll need to adjust the bake time.
Melinda
Any substitute for the mustard? I'm okay with a teaspoon or two, but more than that and I'm turned off. : /
Chrystal
I don't really have a sub for the mustard at the moment.
Best,
Chrystal
Annett Autrey
Can this be made in 4x8 loaf pans? If so, what do I reduce baking time to?
Chrystal
You can make this in a 4x8 pan, the cook time would be the same.
Best,

Darrin
Made this recipe in a loaf pan without zucchini, mushrooms or shredded carrots. I used Pork Rinds ,lean ground beef and all the other ingredients exactly. The taste was delicious, but it fell about and didn’t come out in slices as pic shows. What should I have done differently?
Chrystal
Hi Darin,
It could have been because you left out some of the ingredients (zucchini, mushrooms, etc.). It could also be that it wasn't pressed into the pan enough.
Chrystal
Darrin
I didn’t add those ingredients because I thought it would add too much moisture in the meatloaf. It could have been because I didn’t press it into the loaf pan enough. I will remake and see if it resolves the issue. Thanks.
