George's Tips | When buying marinara sauce, it is very important to read the labels! Look for the sauce that is the lowest in sugar. While tomatoes contain some natural sugars, check the ingredients list for any sugar or corn syrup that may have been added. With so many jars to choose from, there's no need to buy the one with added corn syrup! Variation | If you do not have a loaf pan, simply form a rounded loaf by hand in a large baking dish. Also, you can make an Italian Vegetable Stuffed Meatloaf by adding 1⁄4 cup of diced roasted red peppers and 1⁄2 cup of diced fresh zucchini. calories:425|fat: 28g|protein: 29g |fiber: 1g|net carbs:6.5g See More of my Recipes on Pinterest---> http://www.pinterest.com/thegeorgestella/low-carb/
