I searched long and hard for a Boca meatloaf recipe that didn't call for breadcrumbs or oatmeal . . . and didn't really find any. So, I played around and substituted 1/4 cup of oat bran for the 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs that the original recipe called for. Divided this pretty loaf into four- each under 200 calories. I was afraid it wouldn't bind as well without the breadcrumbs, but I was pleasantly surprised . . . and it tasted even better cold the next day!
Here's my modified recipe:
