meatloaf lunch

Meatloaf (Paleo) and sweet potatoes
cucumbers and clementine
packed in an EasyLunchBox

My husband made the meatloaf with ground beef, shredded carrots, chopped onions, eggs and spices. He cooks the way I do (experimental, using recipes as "guidelines," adding stuff here and there.) Otherwise, I would share the recipe with you.

  1. Love how you used the cucumber scraps! My boyfriend and I were just talking about scraps last night. He said my bento making (which I am about to start) is going to be a big waste of food because of all of the left over scraps. I will have to share this one with him later :]

    Thanks for sharing!
