Meat loaf is sometimes higher in carbs than you might think because of the bread that is added, along with egg, as a binder. Our version has a small amount of breadcrumbs, and they're 100-percent whole wheat. Ingredients:
cooking spray |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1/4 cup finely chopped celery |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 1/2 pounds ground round |
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes with italian herbs, drained (such as contadina) |
3 (1-ounce) slices reduced-calorie whole wheat bread, torn into small pieces |
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium worcestershire sauce |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
1 large egg white, lightly beaten |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 tablespoons chili sauce |
1 tablespoon water |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion, celery, and garlic; sauté 3 minutes or until tender.
3. Combine onion mixture, ground round, and next 6 ingredients in a bowl; stir well. Shape meat mixture into a 9 x 5-inch loaf; place on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Combine chili sauce and water; brush over loaf. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour or until a meat thermometer registers 160°. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
