Prize Meatloaf Recipe:
Background- Beth and I searched long and hard for the perfect meatloaf recipe, and this one was DEFINITELY it. It is just sweet enough, with a delicious ketchup based sauce that i was swabbing it up with bread while I made the meatloaf! I found that there was TONS of tomato sauce left over, so don't feel guilty for having a taste 8) You're gonna love this one:
1 1/2 lb ground beef
1 cup italian bread crumbs
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (i used dried b/c thats what I had)
3-4 cloves of garlic, minced finely
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 cup parmesan, grated
---------------
1 8 ox can tomato sauce
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup beef stock (can use bouillon)
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
3 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp dijon mustard
2 tsp worcestershire sauce
In a medium size bowl, combine tomato sauce through worcestershire. Mix thoroughly.
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients from beef to parmesan. Also add 1 cup of the tomato mixture. Use your bare, fabulous hands to mix this all together. Form into a loaf, place in a lightly oiled bread loaf pan or a 7x10. Pour some of the remaining tomato sauce over the loaf to rim of loaf pan if you're using one. In that case put the loaf on a cookie sheet or place a cookie sheet on the rack below in the oven- it will bubble over. If you put it on a cookie sheet it will take longer to cook, so adjust for that.
Bake at 350 for 1 hour 30 minutes.
