Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf

What could be better than bacon? How about wrapping it around moist, tender meatloaf. This recipe is just that and will be a favourite with your family.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef;
• 1/2 lb bacon, cut in small chunks;
• 8 additional strips of bacon;
• ¼ cup coconut milk;
• 2 garlic cloves, minced;
• 1/3 cup fresh chives, minced;
• Fresh parsley, chopped;
• Freshly ground black pepper to taste;

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 400 F.
2. In a bowl, mix the ground beef, the bacon pieces, the garlic, the chives and the coconut milk. Mix well until all the ingredients hold together.
   
3. Season the mixture with freshly ground black pepper to taste. There is no need to add salt to the mixture since the bacon will have enough salt.
4. Take a medium size muffin tin and place a slice of bacon around the sides of each hole.
5. Fill these same eight holes with the beef mixture.
6. Place in the oven and cook for 30 minutes.
7. Once ready and cool enough to handle, remove the mini meatloaves from the muffin tin and serve with fresh parsley sprinkled on top.
