My husband doesn't know this...but I don't use ground beef for meatloaf. I have slipped ground turkey in on him and he doesn't know the difference.
!.5 pounds of ground turkey
1 cup of fresh bread crumbs - crust removed
1 cup of chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup ketchup
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 tablespoons of worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon of olive oil
saute the onion and carrot in the olive oil until tender. Gently mix all ingredients in a bowl until mixed. Do not over mix or the meatloaf will be tough. Form in to a loaf on a baking sheet. Mix the following ingredients together and baste the loaf with it.
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons mustard
2 tablespoons brown sugar
bake at 350 for about an hour.
