November Meatloaf


Nice meatloaf is always good to fill your dinner plans. The secret is to make it just a touch different without being strange. Here your secret is using gingersnaps! It is amazing.


Don't be afraid to try another meatloaf! This time get out the old food processor and let it do the work. 
 


Ingredients:
1.5 lbs ground beef
About a cup of gingersnap cookies
4 pieces of honey wheat bread
½ yellow onion
4oz Gruyere cheese
1 egg
½ cup beef broth – low salt
2 Tbs mustard
2 Tbs ketchup

Directions:
Pre heat oven to 350 and spray a baking dish.
Peel and cut the onion into 2 fourths.


Set the food processor on chop. Pause the gingersnaps until a fine crumble, add the pieces of bread and continue to pause until well crumbled.
Unplug the processor while you change the blade to the grater attachment.
Plug back in and feed the 2 onion quarters into the grater. Next put in the cheese. Let this mix well.

Place into a large bowl with the ground beef. Add the egg and ½ cup of broth. Mix this well and spoon in the mustard. 
 
When incorporated, let this sit on counter for at least 7 minutes. This will let the broth and egg swell into the crumbs and produce a wonderful tasting binder to hold the loaf together.


Form into a loaf in the baking dish leaving room on each side for the grease to escape. Rub the remaining Tbs of ketchup on the top to make a nice crust and place in the oven.


Let bake for about an hour or until thermometer reads 160 degrees. Remove and let sit in the dish for 5 minutes to rest and recover before serving.
This pairs nicely with some macaroni and cheese and a green side vegetable.. 

 


So happy to be serving my Master Indy with a brand NEW STOVE!
