You can't top a hearty helping of meat loaf with creamy mashed potatoes on the side,' writes Karen Laubman from Spruce Grove, Alberta. 'This tender, moist meat loaf with a hint of cheese is a big hit at our house. The addition of oats boosts its nutritional value.' Ingredients:
2 eggs |
1/2 cup ketchup |
2 tablespoons prepared mustard |
3 cups old-fashioned oats |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
1 teaspoon dried basil |
1 1/2 cups beef broth |
1 1/2 cups finely chopped onion |
1 1/2 cups finely chopped celery |
2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided |
4 pounds lean ground beef |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat eggs; stir in ketchup, mustard, oats, salt, garlic powder, thyme and basil. In a small saucepan, bring broth to a boil; add to oat mixture and mix well. Stir in onion, celery and 2 cups of cheese. Add beef; mix well. Press into two ungreased 9-in. x 5-in. x 3-in. loaf pans. bake at 375 degrees F for 1-1/4 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 170 degrees F and juices run clear; drain. Sprinkle with remaining cheese; let stand until melted.
