  1. Cabbage Meat Loaf

    March 17, 2008 by Tarrant Figlio

    Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Unfortunately, I have no recipe for Corned Beef and Cabbage meatloaf. Sorry. Well, I do have a corned beef jell-o recipe but I thought that might be a bit much for you on a Meatloaf Monday.

    Instead, how about just a cabbage and potato meatloaf? Actually, this one is a nice easy way to get the “stuffed cabbage roll” taste without the time consuming rolling part.

    Cabbage and Potato Meatloaf

    1 bag shredded cabbage (4-6 cups)
    1 Onion, finely chopped
    1 c shredded carrots
    1 teaspoon basil 1
    1/4 teaspoon oregano
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
    1 c shredded potatoes
    1 egg
    1/3 c breadcrumbs
    1-2 lbs ground beef

    Saute cabbage and onion in the oil in a large skillet over medium heat,stirring them often, until cabbage begins to turn golden. Add the carrots and garlic; saute the vegetables another 5 minutes.

    In a large bowl,combine the beef, shredded potatoes, egg, breadcrumbs, seasonings. Add cooked veggies. Mix ingredients lightly. Shape into loaf and cover with foil. Bake at 350, 1 hour. Mix a small can of tomato sauce, 2 tablespoons vinegar and a heaping tablespoon of brown sugar. Brush over top. Return to oven uncovered for 10 minutes or until loaf is fully cooked.

    This one from my mother who called on Friday night to ask if I still did that “meatloaf online thing” on Mondays every week. She raved about her new recipe for meatloaf…she got it from someone at church.

    Pizza Meatloaf

    2 lbs ground beef
    1 cup bread crumbs
    2 eggs
    1 small jar spaghetti/pizza sauce
    Sliced or Shredded Mozzarella

    Mix ground beef, eggs, 1/2 of the spaghetti sauce. Form into loaf. Bake for 30 minutes at 350. Pour remaining sauce on top, bake 30 minutes. Add mozzarella on top and bake for another 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and loaf is fully cooked.

  4. Meat Loaf Ring

    January 28, 2008 by Tarrant Figlio

    This comes from the very retro cookbook: The Complete Electric Skillet-Frypan Cookbook.(1960) This cookbook is notable in its overwhelming enthusiasm for “America’s Favorite Appliance.” If you don’t own America’s favorite appliance, this works equally well in the oven.

    Meat Loaf Ring

    Combine 3 pounds of hamburger, 2 eggs slightly beaten, 2 teaspoons salt, dash of pepper, a mashed clove of garlic, 1/2 cup of grated onion, with 1 cup cornflakes. Blend well. Put into 9″ ring mold. Spoon over it 1/2 cup canned tomato sauce. Set mold into skillet in about an inch of water. Cover pan and cook at 325 degrees for 1 1/2 hours. Turn meatloaf out of mold and fill center with buttered cooked noodles, with a ring of baby beets around the outside and fringes of parsley between the beets. Serves 8-10.
