I first tried this savory meat loaf recipe more than 30 years ago after seeing it demonstrated on a local TV cooking program. Since then, I've served it time and again to family and guests. The flavorful stuffing sets it apart from the ordinary. -Shirley Leister, West Chester, Pennsylvania Ingredients:
2 eggs |
2 tablespoons milk |
1/4 cup ketchup |
1-1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1-1/2 pounds ground beef |
stuffing: |
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced |
1 medium onion, chopped |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 cups soft bread crumbs |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat eggs, milk, ketchup, salt and pepper. Add beef and mix well. Pat half of the meat mixture into a greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pan; set aside. 2. For stuffing, saute the mushrooms and onion in butter until tender, about 3 minutes. Add bread crumbs, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper; saute until crumbs are lightly browned. Spoon over meat layer; cover with remaining meat mixture and press down gently. Bake at 350° for 1 hour or until a thermometer reads 160°, draining fat as necessary. Yield: 6 servings. |
