A Comfort Food - 11/7/12
Meatloaf is such a comfort food. It's just good! :) I tend to make more comfort foods in the winter. It's just nice to snuggle up to a bowl of soup or chili, or a plate of a classic cassarole!
At our house, we really don't eat red meat. We eat a lot of ground turkey! This meatloaf is made with ground turkey, and it is mmm mmm good. My husband, who never had ground turkey before we were married, said he can't taste a difference. I can, but I just think it tastes better. ;)
Oscar's Meatloaf
(from a church cookbook - a recipe of my aunts)
1 lb hamburger
1/2 can breadcrumbs
1/2 T soy sauce
1/8 tsp pepper
1 egg
1 1/2 T Ketchup
1/2 small chopped onion
1/4 tsp salt
Combine all ingredient in a bowl, put in 1 loaf pan. Bake 1 hour at 350.
Like I said, I use ground turkey instead of hamburger. Also, I like onions in my meatloaf, so I usually add a whole small onion.
Oven Fries
Potatoes
Oil
Spray pan, spread in a single layer. Sprinkle with garlic salt and chili powder. Flip halfway through. Bake at 350 for 1/2 an hour.
I used sweet potatoes for this recipe. They weren't as crisp as the white potatoes. They were still really yummy! But next time I'd bake them for a bit longer.
The zucchini I just cut in to bite size pieces and steamed. Put the pieces into a pot with about 1-2 inches of water in the bottom, put in a steamer basket, the zucchini. Bring to a boil, and then steam for 8 minutes.
I don't like meatloaf reheated. So the second day, we always eat the left over meatloaf in a cold meatloaf sandwich with ketchup. Super yummy!
