Meat Loaf.

In my quest to find new recipes for using ground beef I came across this meal plan winner.

Meatloaf

Ingredients:
-1 lb Grass-fed Ground Beef
-1 small Yellow Onion, chopped
-1 clove Garlic, minced
-½ Cup Flat leaf Parsley, finely chopped
-1 large Free-range Egg, lightly beaten
-1 Cup Ezekiel bread, lightly toasted and processed into bread crumbs (Find it in the freezer section)
-2/3 Cup Organic tomato paste or Organic fruit sweetened Ketchup (No high fructose corn syrup!

-1 teaspoon Sea salt
-½ teaspoon pepper

Directions:
*Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.  In medium bowl combine chopped onion, garlic, parsley, egg and 1/3 Cup tomato paste/ketchup.  Add Ezekiel bread crumbs and beef and season with salt and pepper.  Mix until well combined.  Place mixture in a 6 Cup capacity loaf pan (8x4 inch) or simply shape into a loaf on a glass baking dish.  Pat gently to make a rounded top.  Do not pack.  Bake meatloaf for 50 minutes.  Remove from oven and brush with remaining 1/3 Cup tomato paste or ketchup.  Return to oven, bake until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads160 degrees F (approx 10-20 minutes).  Cool meatloaf for 10 minutes in pan before slicing.

Enjoy!

Many blessings to you on this fine night.--Kate
