Easy Does It Meatloaf

I use oatmeal instead of bread crumbs.

Meatloath is a contentious topic particularly in the Singles Forum. Still, my wife is going to make a meatloaf tomorrow. Good eating for sure. She tops hers with ketchup too.

Your muffin loafs sound interesting and merit consideration. I like that salsa touch too. Might just pass that along.

Actually, I use that vinegar idea already for my laundry. Wife does too. Removes cat hair from clothes exceptionally well.

Regarding Mom though, nobody cooks better than Mom. That's just how it is.

Unless your mom wasn't paying attention when Grandma cooked. Like mine 😂😂

My late mother-in-law was not much of a cook either. Food was dry, bland, and tasteless.

You really should try my recipe once. 🥰

1- cup of plain, canned bread crumbs.

Oh yeah, let me know what you think.

Needed:
1 large muffin pan
1- pound of ground beef
1- cup of plain, canned bread crumbs. You can also crush no salt soda crackers, but they must be finely crushed.
1/4 cup of your favorite salsa
1 bottle of ketchup (for top of pan cups)

Preheat oven to 350°F

Mix meat and bread crumbs thoroughly.

Add salsa and work through mixture until evenly distributed (especially for those using chunky salsa)

Fill each muffin cup until meat is almost even with the top and level mixture.

Spread a thin layer of ketchup to prevent the top from drying out.

Bake until all sides have completely pulled away from the cup edges.

This should take between 30-45 minutes. But, be certain all edges of the meat has detached from the cup.

Drain excess grease with absorbent material. Some use strong paper towels and blot the bottom, some use washable cloths that have been washed with vinegar only and no fabric softener or sheets.

(Great laundry tip btw. Vinegar kills bacteria, is considered hypoallergenic because it rinses clean, is a natural substance. and is safe for materials used while handling food. I wash my wood spatula handles with a 50/50 water dilution because it doesn't harm wood, but seeps into any pores, disinfects and rinses clean).

Oh yeah, let me know what you think. I've been told mine is the best recipe (including Moms with children).

Here's Nonnie showing us how she makes meatloaf.
