I've never been the biggest meatloaf fan so I was hesitant to try this new recipe I found online.
We were just so tired of eating chicken that I had to spice it up with some lean ground beef! I probably could have tried to make it with some even healthier ground turkey, but didn't want to tweak the recipe just yet.
Derek ended up LOVING it and I thought it actually was pretty delicious. It was a SUPER easy recipe and the loaf ended up very sweet and moist! I'm pretty sure I'll be making this again sometime soon!
INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar - 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 cup ketchup - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef - 1 small onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup milk - 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 eggs - 3/4 cup finely crushed saltine cracker crumbs
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 5x9 inch loaf pan.
2. Press the brown sugar in the bottom of the prepared loaf pan and spread the ketchup over the sugar.
3. In a mixing bowl, mix thoroughly all remaining ingredients and shape into a loaf. Place on top of the ketchup.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until juices are clear.
What do you mix into your meatloaf?
Meatloaf...yum yum. I drove home from college every Sunday night for meatloaf dinner! :) The Kokoruda recipe calls for dry onion soup mix, and I LOVE onions!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds awesome! Except Scott isn't a fan of ketchup, but I love the stuff. I might have to try this version and just not tell him about the ketchup part :)
