I made this for my wife she is an avid Mexican restaurant visitor. The amount of spice you want in this recipe depends on the RO*TEL® and the salsa. I recommend if you do not like it hot get the mild RO*TEL® and a medium salsa. Ingredients:
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as ro*tel®) |
1/4 cup diced onions |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
2 pounds lean ground beef |
1 cup crushed hot and spicy cheese flavored crackers |
topping |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1 cup chunky salsa |
Directions:
1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Combine the eggs, tomatoes, onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Gently stir the ground beef and crackers into the egg mixture. Press into a 8x8 inch square baking pan. Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes.
3. Remove the loaf from the oven, and drain any liquid from the pan. Spread a layer of salsa on top of the loaf, and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Return the loaf to the oven; bake until the meatloaf reaches 160 degrees F (71 degrees C) and is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes.
