If you're craving the traditional meatloaf, but don't want to feel stuffed, then try this lighter chicken version. It's healthier and lighter thanks to the lean meat, oats instead of flour, and proteins from the eggs. It's still filling tho and will keep you full all day. It also looks great when sliced and therefore makes an impressive prepared lunch. You can make 9 portions at once, so your meals are sorted for a couple of days, and you don't have to waste time cooking.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
Hard‑boil three eggs, peel them and set aside.
In a bowl, mix the minced meat, oats, mustard and one raw egg. Season it with garlic granules, onion, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Transfer half of the meat mixture to a baking tray or a loaf tin. Create a dent in the middle and insert the three boiled eggs.
Cover the top and the sides with the remaining meat mixture, so the eggs are fully covered. Smooth the surface with wet hands.
Bake it in the preheated oven for 50 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve it with a gherkin, mashed potatoes, bread, or whatever else you fancy.
