A new twist on an old favorite is this marvelous meat loaf from Brenda Biron's kitchen in Sydney, Nova Scotia. A hearty ham and cheese filling is rolled up inside ground beef. Potatoes and carrots baked alongside make it a hearty one-dish meal. Ingredients:
1 egg |
2 tablespoons 2% milk |
3/4 cup soft bread crumbs |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion |
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
3/4 pound ground beef |
2 thin slices deli ham |
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
2 medium red potatoes, cut into chunks |
2 medium carrots, halved and cut into chunks |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the egg and milk. Stir in the bread crumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, onion, tarragon, thyme, garlic powder and pepper. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well.
2. On a piece of heavy-duty foil, pat beef mixture into a 9-1/2-in. x 6-1/2-in. x 1/2-in. rectangle. Top with ham and cheese. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a short side and peeling foil away while rolling. Seal seam and ends. Place in an 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray.
3. Arrange potatoes and carrots around meat loaf. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30 minutes. Turn potatoes and carrots. Bake 15-20 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 160° and vegetables are tender. Yield: 2 servings.
