This is a little different than the usual tomato type meatloaf glaze. I found the recipe in a cookbook I picked up at a garage sale called Like Grandma Used To Make and I tweaked it a little bit. I usually double the sauce. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef |
12 saltine crackers, crushed |
1/2 cup milk |
1 small onion, finely chopped |
1/3 cup fresh mushrooms or 1/3 cup sweet green pepper, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons minced parsley |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon sage |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
2 large eggs, lightly beaten |
1/3 cup brown sugar |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons dijon mustard or 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350*F. Mix the ground beef, crackers, milk, onion, mushrooms or green pepper, parsley, salt, sage, black pepper and eggs. Shape the mixture into an 8x4 inch loaf and place in a shallow baking pan. (I have one of those 2 piece meatloaf pans where the grease drips to the bottom and I love it!). 2. Bake for approximately 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 170*F. 3. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, lemon juice and mustard. Spread over the meatloaf and return to the oven for 10 minutes. |
