LCHF Meatloaf filled gem squash

My dear hubby has always been an avid foodie, but while I was a SAHM I did most of the cooking. Since I started working again he has taken over kitchen duty again. Hubby loves testing out new recipes or coming up with recipes of his own. Tonight he came up with this delicious recipe! It is completely LCHF legal. 



Ingredients:
4 large Gem squash, halved
1kg Beef mince
2 Tbspn coconut oil
1 Onion, chopped
3 Bay leaves
4-5 Cloves
1.5 c beef stock
4 Tbspn cream
1 egg
1 Tbspn psyllium husk powder

Method:

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees.

1. Boil gem squash until tender. Drain very well.
2. Fry onions in coconut oil until transparent.
3. Add mince and brown.
4. Add the bay leaves, cloves and beef stock and simmer over low heat until there is no more liquid. Set the mince aside.
5. Mix cream and egg. Add this to the mince.
6. Stir in psyllium husk powder until well combined.
7. Spoon mince into gem squash. Top with grated Parmesan cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes.


Happy 2019!
