My husband is on a low-fat diet, so I try to make dishes that are lower in fat, sugar and salt but still have flavor, offers Linda Begley of Stoutsville, Missouri. Her easy-to-fix meat loaf, topped with slices of tomato, is tender, tasty and cuts nicely. Ingredients:
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1/2 cup fat-free milk |
1/4 cup ketchup |
1 cup quick-cooking oats |
1 slice white bread, crumbled |
4 saltines, crushed |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 pounds ground beef |
1 medium tomato, sliced |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into a loaf in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour.
2. Arrange tomato slices over loaf. Bake 30 minutes longer or until meat is no longer pink and a meat thermometer reads 160°. Using two large spatulas, carefully transfer meat loaf to a serving platter. Yield: 8 servings.
