An easy meatloaf with a slightly crunchy veggie texture. Flavorful sauce adds that classic slightly sweet & tangy tomato flavor. HINT: To reduce fat, I bake this for one hour, pour any grease off and *then* pour the sauce over and then bake for the last 15 minutes. Ingredients:
1 medium onion |
1 medium green bell pepper |
1 1/2 lbs ground beef |
1 cup breadcrumbs |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce, divided |
1 egg |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 cup water |
2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed |
2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard |
1 tablespoon vinegar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Chop onion and green bell pepper.
3. Gently mix ground beef, bread crumbs, onion, green bell pepper, 1/2 of the tomato sauce, egg, salt, and pepper until combined.
4. Do not overmix. Form into a loaf and place in a shallow pan.
5. Whisk together the rest of the tomato sauce, water, brown sugar, mustard, and vinegar until smooth. Pour over the meatloaf.
6. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, basting with pan juices about every 20 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
