This is the only version of meatloaf that I have ever had in our home since I could remember. Another one of my Mom’s great findings from years ago. I have included some substitutes with this recipe for those who are watching their figures
.
1 lb. ground beef – Sub. 1 lb. Lean ground beef
1 cup rolled oats (regular, not quick)
1/8-1/4 cup minced onion – Sub. Dried minced onion(works just as well and doesn’t make you cry
).
1/4 cup green pepper, minced
1 egg – Sub. Egg substitute
1/4 tsp. each salt and pepper
1/2 TBSP. Worchestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
1/8 cup milk – (Low fat milk will work just fine, including rice or soy milk)
1/4 cup ketchup
To taste: 1 tsp. turbinado sugar, 1/8 tsp. garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In large bowl, mix together all ingredients. Shape meat into loaf and place in loaf pan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Drizzle more Ketchup over meatloaf. Bake for 40 minutes. Enjoy! Serves: 6 slices
