Who doesn’t love a good meatloaf sandwich? It’s my husband’s absolute favorite sandwich after grilled burgers. Since I had a pretty large hunk of meatloaf leftover this week, I thought I’d try this! They came out GREAT! These tasty sliders make a wonderful snack, lunch, picnic option, school lunch or tail-gate treat during football season! I used my new Slider Bun recipe and leftover Italian Meatloaf. Although any meatloaf can be used, nutritional numbers were calculated using the recipe linked below. These nutritious meatloaf sliders (check out the stats below) are suitable once you reach Atkins Phase 2 OWL grains rung of the carb ladder or Keto diets, but are not suitable for Primal-Paleo.

Where do I find plain whey protein powder? Thanks!
Health food stores, Natural Grocers, Vitacost.com, vitaminshoppe.com, GNC stores, and lots of places on-line. Google search for the best deals on-line. I don’t buy it in small quantities, so I’m a poor person to recommend sources. 🙂 I buy the 10# mega bag of NOW brand wherever I can get the best deal on it and store the surplus in my freezer. The places I mentioned do carry it in 1# and 2# tubs.
Where do you get your slider buns pan?
Click the blue link for it in the recipe and it will take you to the bun recipe. They are homemade.
I made both the meatloaf and the buns and they were really delicious! Thank you for the inspiration and the recipes. Kitty
The buns do make a nice little slider. Glad you like them both! I love that particular meatloaf recipe.
