So here is the recipe I use for meatloaf. And I say the recipe I use instead of my recipe because it is in no way, shape, or form my recipe. My now sister-in-law brought over a meatloaf last year (possibly the year before) and we were pretty darn impressed! We asked her what her recipe was and she let us in on her secret - it was the first recipe that popped up when she Googled easy meatloaf recipe. So, I cleaned it up as best as I could and made it tonight. Mmmmmm
Meatloaf:
1.5 pounds organic ground beef (or turkey if you like)
1 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1 cup organic milk
1 organic egg
1 chopped onion
Glaze:
2 T organic brown sugar
2 T organic mustard
1/3 c. organic ketchup
Mix together all the meatloaf ingredients - I use my hands. You can be a baby if you want and use a spoon or something silly. Then put it in a greased meatloaf pan. Mix together the ingredients for the glaze (I do use a fork for this part) and then spread evenly on top of meatloaf. Bake at 350 for an hour. Sooooooo good!
When I have my act together I usually serve it with mashed cauliflower, but today I was feeling super lazy and bought microwave mashed potatoes - I like Simply Potatoes, I find they are the cleanest of the microwave variety. And my veggie of choice is green beans. Those I just spray with a little oil, minced garlic, and pepper and throw in the oven about 25ish minutes before the meatloaf is done.
