- Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground Italian sausage, almond flour, Parmesan cheese, eggs, basil, parsley, oregano, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Take a 9×5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.

- Add the remaining meat mixture on top of the sauce, pressing it down to form the top layer.

- Remove the meatloaf from the oven and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
- Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Let the meatloaf rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
