    List of Ingredients






    6 slices center-cut bacon or turkey bacon
    1 cup chopped mushrooms
    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1 1/4 lbs. raw extra-lean ground beef
    1/2 cup canned crushed tomatoes
    3 tbsp. hickory-flavored BBQ sauce, divided
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. black pepper
    1/4 tsp. onion powder
    1/4 tsp. garlic powder
    2 tbsp. ketchup

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a loaf pan with nonstick spray and set aside.

    Bring a large skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat on the stove. Add bacon and cook until crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Remove bacon and, once cool enough to handle, chop or crumble. Set aside.

    If needed, clean and dry skillet. Re-spray skillet and return to medium heat. Add mushrooms and onion. Stirring occasionally, cook until completely softened, 5 - 7 minutes. Remove from heat and, once cool enough to handle, blot away any excess moisture with paper towels. Transfer veggies to a large bowl. Add about three-fourths of the bacon, and set the rest aside for topping. To the bowl, add beef, tomatoes, 2 tbsp. BBQ sauce, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly.

    Transfer mixture to the loaf pan; if needed, smooth out the surface with the back of a spatula or spoon. Set aside.

    In a small bowl, combine ketchup with remaining tablespoon of BBQ sauce and mix well. Evenly top meatloaf with the BBQ-ketchup mixture and sprinkle with remaining bacon.

    Bake in the oven until meatloaf is fully cooked, about 50 minutes.

    Slice, serve, and enjoy!
