This recipe was given to me by my mother in-law. My DH loves all of my cooking and creations. But he always requests that his meat loaf be made this way. Ingredients:
2 lbs ground beef (we use the leanest) |
2 eggs |
1/3 cup milk |
1 medium onion |
1 teaspoon pepper (freshly ground) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon sage |
1 -1 1/2 cup breadcrumbs |
ketchup (optional) |
3/4 lb sliced bacon (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a food processor or blender, puree the onion.
2. After the onion is done, mix in two eggs, 1/3°C Milk and set aside the liquid mixture.
3. In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, 1 cup of the bread crumbs, spices and the liquid ingredients.
4. If the mixture seems too wet, mix in the remaining bread crumbs.
5. (Depends on the size and moisture content of the onion.) Cook on a roasting pan at 350 degrees.
6. Do not cook in a bread pan, the liquids will stay in the pan with the meat. Not a pretty sight!
7. Options:
8. Childhood memory option: Put as many figure sized holes in the top or shape the meat loaf into your favorite childhood action figure. Then fill in the holes with ketchup.
9. Adult option: Roll the meat loaf into a log and wrap with the sliced bacon.
