How to make it keto
Crucially, ensure no breadcrumbs, oats, or rice are used as binders or fillers. Eggs and cheese should be used for binding. Served with a simple side salad or sautéed low-carb vegetables instead of potato sides.
Watch out for
Breadcrumbs or other starchy fillers in the meatloaf mixture. Sugary glazes or sauces (unlikely in authentic Montenegrin meatloaf but possible). Starchy side dishes.
