This adds a upbeat taste to a traditional dinner. Goes great with mashed potatoes and green beans. Nice for a weekend dinner! Great tip: Freeze or refrigerate leftovers to make meat loaf sandwiches for lunch or a snack. They are great! Ingredients:
1 lb ground round (may substitute with hamburger, ground chuck, ground sirloin) |
barbecue sauce (a bottle) |
1 large onion |
1 large green pepper |
1/2 cup breadcrumbs |
1 egg (may use 2 egg whites instead of whole egg) |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet french onion soup mix |
Directions:
1. Start out with a large mixing bowl.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F.
3. Chop 1/2 onion and place in mixing bowl.
4. Chop 1/2 green pepper and place in mixing bowl.
5. Add ground round, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, French Onion Soup mix, egg into the mixing bowl.
6. Mix well.
7. Add 1/2 bottle of barbecue sauce to the mixture and mix well.
8. Form the mixture into a square or loaf. (I usually form it to the pan I am using).
9. Slice the remaining onion and green peppers and arrange on top of loaf.
10. Pour 1/4 of the remaining barbecue sauce on the top of the loaf. (I usually make a letter M with the sauce-it makes it look pretty).
11. Place in oven.
12. Take it out of oven in 1/2 hour and pour the remainder of the barbecue sauce on top.
13. Let cook for another 1/2 hour.
14. Check for doneness.
15. I like mine well done.
16. Adjust cooking time to your liking.
17. Serve immediately.
18. Great with mashed potatoes and green beans.
