Cooked my first meatloaf, it is very good

[N1LAF]

After watching shows like Iron Chef and Chopped, I ventured into my own meatloaf experiment. The result was a moist, tasty dinner, with plenty of leftovers to reheat.

Preheat oven to 385 degrees

1 egg, beaten
mix with a few splashes of Worcester sauce
add 1 teaspoon or so of salt
add 1 teaspoon of black pepper
add two tablespoons of brown sugar

1/2 red onion and 1/2 green pepper - food processor, until mushy, add tio above

add 1 - 10oz can of diced tomatoes with chiles.
add 1/2 cup of oatmeal
mix well
add 1.25 pounds of mixed ground beef/port

Mix all together.

Pour into loaf pan, squirt a little bit of ketchup, smooth on top, spash some hot sauce.

Bake for an hour.

Done... easy...

Paul, if you've been watching the original Japanese version of Iron Chef, I would expect you to include sweetfish innards or some other equally bizarre item in your meatloaf.

I am watching "Restaurant Stakeout" right now..

Wouldn't that be like anchovies on pizza?

Don't let your meat loaf!:lol:

When I make meatloaf, I also throw in all the vegetables in the fridge about ready to turn. If it is substantial, I end up with a veggie loaf with meat.

Like Grandma used to tell us, you may not like our potatoes, but you can't beat our meat.

Sarah made lamb/sausage meatloaf last night. It was YUMMY.

I cooked up an egg scramble this morning using part of the meatloaf leftovers.

She didn't complain. At all...

That sounds like a great breakfast idea. I'm going to give it a try next we have some leftover ML.

I ain't eatin' no right-wing meatloaf.

How about a meatloaf sandwich?

I like to make salmon loaf with pumpernickel bread and oatmeal.
Leftovers are legal, of course. I've put eggplant in it, yummy.

[N1LAF]

That does sound good. Eggplant too.

Next time (it will be soon...) I will use A1 steak sauce instead of ketchup. The diced tomatoes were perfect in the meatloaf, as it provided a tangy taste. The ketchup is too much tomato. The oatmeal is preferred over bread.

Cheap salmon in the can is perfect for salmon loaf. Add olives and capers for fancy.

I love cold meatloaf sandwiches with ketchup.

Damn heathen!

Janet, that sounds just awesome!!! Lamb is a favorite around here, really hard to find though, and REALLY expensive when you do.
What kind of sausage went in it?

Take the meatloaf sandwhich, put a dollop of mash potatoes on it, along with a dollop of BBQ sauce. Try that one.

[N7YA]

Yes....some Meatloaf is much better once its cooled off a bit. ;)

1 egg, beaten

What did that egg ever do to you to deserve such treatment?

[N1LAF]

Hey Scott, long time no see.

Well... I go through periods of inactivity but then I come here and realize how much I miss this place!

And no, that avatar picture is not Photoshopped! It is an actual frame from a Three Stooges episode I have saved on my computer. I wonder how Larry managed to slip that one by the sensors???

It should have cooked itself better and this wouldnt happen!

[K7SGJ]

It was totally whipped. Fortunately, it will soon be over, easy.

Puns are a dime a dozen, and most are just plain cracked.

You always egg me on, and it really scrambles my thoughts.

The yolk's on you, then.

I finally have to courage to come out of my shell, and you make a crack like that?

Sorry.

I'll stop posting now, maybe go listen to my favorite Beatles disk—The White Albumen.

That sounds great also.
