The meat loaf cooks in the microwave for just 8 minutes, a fraction of the time it takes for traditionally baked meat loaf. Broiling the cheese on top of the cooked meat loaf until it's brown and bubbly lends the dish a pleasing, oven-baked look. Ingredients:
1/3 cup reduced-sodium marinara sauce |
1/3 cup panko (japanese breadcrumbs) |
2 tablespoons grated onion |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme |
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 pound ground sirloin |
1 large egg |
cooking spray |
2 ounces part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded (about 1/2 cup) |
Directions:
1. Combine first 8 ingredients (through egg) in a large bowl; stir gently to combine. Spread beef mixture evenly in a 9 1/2-inch microwave-safe loaf dish coated with cooking spray; do not pack beef mixture into dish. Loosely cover with a paper towel. Microwave at HIGH 8 minutes.
2. Preheat broiler.
3. Sprinkle meat loaf with cheese; broil 3 minutes or until browned.
