Meatloaf Recipes From Jan My Mother's meatloaf
My mom doesn't measure so these are approximate measurements. She gave me this recipe twenty years or so ago. She still uses it and I do too: 1 pound hamburger 2 eggs About 1/2 cup seasoned Italian breadcrumbs Seasoning of your choice Basil, oregano, garlic powder, a handful of grated parmesan cheese A little tomato sauce or spaghetti sauce, some chopped green pepper Combine all ingredients except sauce and green pepper. Shape and place in a pie plate. My mom feels the loaf will brown better that way. Put a little sauce and green pepper on top. You can use onions. My mom doesn't like them so she doesn't use them. I've used them. Bake at 350 degrees, for an hour or a bit more. Italian Meat Loaf I got this recipe from a cooking show that was on our local radio station for 35 years. I used to call in to it as well as I got some good recipes: Italian Meatloaf 1-1/2 pounds lean hamburg 3/4 cup Italian bread crumbs 1 egg 1 cup spaghetti sauce, homemade or jarred, divided 1 4-ounce can mushrooms, drained 1 clove crushed garlic or 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp basil 2 tbsp parmesan cheese 1 medium green pepper, chopped 1 medium onion, chopped 1-1/2 tbsp oil Heat oil in skillet. Simmer pepper, onion and garlic until half-cooked. Drain well. In a bowl, mix meat, crumbs, egg, mushrooms and half the spaghetti sauce.Add onion and pepper and mix well. Pour into loaf pan. Mix remaining sauce with cheese and pour over the top of the loaf. Bake at 350 degrees, for one hour. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
