thank youLooking for good meatloaf recipes?
My recipe...if you want to call it that...because it changes all the time is basically this..1 1/2 lb. ground beef, 1/4 pound Italian sausage, 1 1/4 cups bread crumbs, 1/2 cup red wine, 3 eggs, 4 to 6 large mushrooms, 1 bell pepper, 1 medium onion, 2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce, 1 tbsp. brown mustard, 1/4 cup barbecue sauce...Bake at 350 for about 45 min, in loaf or round cake pan...top with more bread crumbs and some Swiss and Havarti cheese...bake until chees is melted.
There are dozens (hundreds? thousands?) of recipes out on the Internet on sites such as recipe.com. However, I say, why constrain yourself to a recipe? Try what you like best and make your own!





When making a meatloaf, there are a few key ingredients:


- meat (generally ground cow or turkey but you could add sausage, too)


- one egg or egg substitute (used to bind everything together)


- breadcrumbs or finely torn pieces of bread (used to bind everything together)





Everything on top of that is up to you to vary. Here are some thoughts:


- Sautee some vegetables in olive oil until they start to give but aren't quite cooked through (possibilities are zucchini, onions, shallots, sun-dried tomatoes, fresh spinach, yellow squash, etc.)


- Add spices and herbs you enjoy (freshly ground pepper, kosher salt, and minced garlic are standards, but you could add rosemary, basil, bay, oregano, italian seasoning, and other flavorful additions)


- Add wine, soups, or sauces as desired (just make sure you keep the amounts limited or add enough bread and meat to absorb the additional liquid, otherwise your loaf won't bind)


- If you want to get really creative, you could try adding various fruits and nuts, too (I don't care for it, but I've heard good things from some people...examples include dried cranberries and sunflower seeds).





Generally, for proportions, I use 1 lb. meat, 1 egg, 1/3 c. bread or bread crumbs, and 1 c. vegetables. I mix it all together, place in a Pyrex-style dish, and bake at 350* for 45 minutes or so (until I can confirm the temperature with a meat thermometer). I generally discard the drippings and add a light tomato sauce (maybe a really good marinara, if you know one that's not too sweet) to the top and then bake for another 5-10 minutes. Then, let cool and serve.





Important point...if you add vegetables to your meatloaf, I highly recommend sauteeing them first to ensure they're cooked through and not too dense. Also, uncooked vegetables added to the meatloaf contain more water and take up more space, so they could make your meatloaf fall apart as it bakes.





Good luck!
My husband makes the best meatloaf. Use a mix of ground beef, veal %26amp; pork. Most stores carry it. And he puts bacon on top....it's yummy.

take a pound to a pound and a half of 75% burg or 80% you need it a little fatty, don't get the 90% or it wont work as well, take the meatloaf, add some bread crumbs, a couple eggs, some catsup and then flatten it on some waxed paper into about 1/2 inch. get some sliced ham and some sliced cheese and wrap it in the meatloaf. Put in a bread pan and bake till your belly starts growling, then you know it's done :D.
Italian Style Meatloaf





Great for any occasion, and absolutely delicious. Excellent served with noodles (or mashed potatoes) and corn. Substitute white bread for wheat bread if you're looking for a healthier meal. For the fresh bread crumbs, use 6 to 8 slices bread crumbled into tiny pieces.





INGREDIENTS:


1 carrot, grated


1/2 onion, chopped


2 cloves garlic, minced


1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley


2 pounds ground beef


1/2 cup ketchup


2 eggs


1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs


1 cup tomato sauce


1 teaspoon white sugar





DIRECTIONS:


Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).


In a medium saucepan over medium high heat, saute the carrot and onion for 2 minutes, or until onion is transparent. Add garlic and saute for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.


In a large bowl, combine the parsley, beef, ketchup, 1/2 cup tomato sauce, bread and eggs, mixing well. Add the carrot/onion mixture and continue mixing, but do not over mix, as this will make the meatloaf dry. Transfer mixture to a 9x13 baking dish and form into a loaf.


Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 30 to 45 minutes.


While loaf is baking, heat the remaining tomato sauce and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium low heat. Pour over loaf when done.
Saute 1/2 cup or more chopped white onions and 1/2 cup or more chopped green peppers until tender. Put in a LARGE mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Add 1 teaspoon salt and black pepper to taste. Add 1 cup or more of your favorite brand ketchup. Add 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar and 1 tablespoon vinegar. Add 3 jumbo eggs, beaten. Add enough uncooked oatmeal or cracker crumbs or bread crumbs to soak up the liquid ingredients as you mix everything together. Add milk if needed to get proper consistency of mixture. Then add as much lean ground beef as you can, mix in well, and form into a loaf. Optional: Wrap your meatloaf with raw bacon slices before baking. Bake in a covered roasting pan at 350 degrees for about 1 hour, then uncover your meatloaf and brush on your favorite brand of BBQ sauce or ketchup/brown sugar mixture, and finish baking uncovered another 15 to 20 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Serve with baked potatoes and tossed salad, ice cream for dessert.
I like to use a mixture of beef and pork in my meatloaf, along with oats, onion flavored dry soup mix, eggs, and ketchup. On top I mix brown sugar and ketchup together and spoon on before baking. YUMMMM! You may also check www.foodtv.com
