THE BEST MEATLOAF I'VE EVER MADE

When I was growing up, my mom never ever made meatloaf and I always wanted to try it - I finally tried it at a restaurant and loved it. When I moved out on my own I started experimenting with different recipes and creating my own version. I finally came up with the best meatloaf I have ever made, and I wanted to share it.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the onion and garlic 5 minutes, until onion is tender. Remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a large bowl, mix the onion and garlic, beef, crumbled bread, crushed crackers, egg, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 can tomato sauce. Gradually stir in the milk 1 teaspoon at a time until mixture is moist, but not soggy. Transfer the mixture to a 5x9 inch loaf pan.
  • Bake uncovered in the preheated oven 40 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and continue baking 15 minutes, to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  • In a small bowl, mix the remaining tomato sauce and ketchup. Pour over the top of the meatloaf, and continue baking 10 minutes.

THE HEALTHY GOOD FOR YOU MEATLOAF

I came up with this recipe in the attempts to make foods healthier and vitamin enriched. As we approach the underbelly of middle age (50's) there is agreement to eat healthier, live longer, and enjoy nature's bounty. However, this is an old fashioned family comfort food for all ages. Meatloaf is not always high on the list of healthy food but I figured I could doctor it up some.. Here is what I came up with. For moms and dads whose children say NOT SPINACH, ewwwwwwweeeeeee this is a great way to get that iron and antioxidant veggie into them. This recipe can also be made in to hamburgers for the BBQ. Very simple to prepare all in 1 dish
