I got this out of Midwest Living Magazine years ago, and it is still my favorite meatloaf recipe.
Ingredients:
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 teaspoons kitchen bouquet
3/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup green pepper, finely chopped
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
1 1/2 lbs ground round
1 cup crouton, crushed slightly
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, tomato paste, seasoning salt and pepper. Stir in green pepper, onion and celery.
3. Add beef and croutons. Mix thoroughly with hands.
4. In a shallow baking pan form mixture into a loaf. Cover loosely with foil.
5. Bake for 55-65 minutes until juices run clear. Remove foil halfway through cook time.
6. Let stand five minutes before serving.
7. Note: I often substitute ketchup for the tomato paste with no effect on the taste.
