Moist Meatloaf:1 to 1.25 lbs of ground meat (I like veal, pork, chicken, lamb or any combo. )1/2 to 1 large portabello mushroom, chopped fine1/4 white onion and/or 4 scallions, chopped fineolive oil1-2 cloves garlic, pressed1 egg1 tablespoon almond flour1/2 teaspoon mustard powdersalt/pepper to tastePreheat oven to 350FSaute onions/scallions in a pan with olive oil until light brown. Press garlic into

the pan and before the garlic turns dark brown throw the contents into a large

bowl with the ground meat. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix it up. Throw

it into a 4x8 loaf pan and cook it for about 50 minutes. I like to use a meat

thermometer, just to be sure. Let it cool for at least five minutes before slicing

and serving. Change out any ingredient you like. The only unique aspect of my

recipe is the mushroom which, in my opinion, will guarantee an always moist

meatloaf. -Dan danrogy@...

Lara (Pat) barsChop up:2 cups dates2 cups raisins1 cup apricots, or other dried fruit of choice* 2-3 cups almond flour 1/2-1 cup pecan flourCop finelyMix together should be fairly stickyadd 1/2 cup of waterplace in oiled muffin tinsPlace in the oven at low heat 200F for around 45minutes to 1 hour.The oven help evaporate the water and releases the oils from the

nuts and help bind the solution.Let cool, then wrap in plastic wrap, so I can travel with them.These amount are a good guess I use the English measure system,

the eye ball.The mixture should be sticky, add the flour the the

dates and fruit. If the mixture starts the get too dry stop with the

flour. Make sure the mixture gets the pecan flour because of the

oils. The water will make it sticky again.*Be careful how you buy the dried fruit. Bulk dried fruits should

have any added sugar. Prepackaged dried fruits usually do.
