Bacon Wrapped BBQ Meatloaf

Meatloaf is one of those comfort foods that has been a staple in most households for ages. EmilyBites has come up with one that fits into the comfort food AND is healthier. I used the barbecue sauce that I posted a couple weeks ago and it is perfect. Plus a serving size is 2 slices!

Taco Seasoning

Are you at home and have a taste for tacos but you don't have the packet? Here is a way to make the taco flavors without the packet. I found this on Allrecipes.com and it has been my go to mix ever since. If you like it a little spicier you can add more red pepper flakes but be careful you can go overboard really quickly.
