Nanas Easy Meatloaf Recipes

INDIVIDUAL MEAT LOAVES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don't mash or the meatloaf will be dense.
• Divide the mixture into 6 (10 to 11-ounce) portions and shape each portion into a small loaf on a sheet pan. Spread about a tablespoon of ketchup on the top of each portion. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the internal temperature is 155 to 160 degrees F and the meat loaves are cooked through. Serve hot.

NANA'S MEATLOAF WITH TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• For the meatloaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place beef, sausage, eggs and panko in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Place tomatoes, vinegar, Worcestershire, oregano, pepper, thyme, kosher salt, seasoning salt, garlic, yellow onion, chile and red onion in a high-powered blender and puree. Reserve half of this mixture for the tomato gravy. Pour the remaining half into the mixing bowl with the meat. Mix the meat really well with your hands until the meatloaf mixture is all the same color.
• Pack the meatloaf mixture into a 6-by-11-inch pan (or something similar). Place pan on a baking sheet to catch any fat that spills out during cooking. Bake the meatloaf until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 155 degrees F, 1 hour 30 minutes. Let meatloaf rest for 10 minutes, then pour the fat out of the pan.
• For the tomato gravy: Meanwhile, whisk together ketchup, tomato paste, mustard and reserved vegetable mix in a saucepan. Place over medium heat and bring up to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, then simmer, stirring every couple of minutes, for 30 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve the tomato gravy with your finished meatloaf! Most importantly, enjoy with friends and family!

MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don't mash or the meat loaf will be dense. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F and the meat loaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven, under the meat loaf, will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot.

NANA'S EASY MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• I start with a big bowl and spread out the ground beef around the bottom and sides of the bowl. Then I add the dry seasonings and the worcestershire and mix by hand literally getting my hands on the meat. Next I add the chopped vegetables and olives mixing that by hand as well. I beat the egg and add that in; then add the oatmeal. I mix by hand 'til all the ingredients are blended.
• I add the mixed meat, seasonings, and vegetables to a greased glass loaf pan shaping it in on sides. Last I add enough ketchup to cover the top surface of the meatloaf spreading it over the top with my fingers. Then I arrange the sliced olives on the top of the ketchup for a decorative topping. Bake for an hour at 350 degrees. Cool, pour off excess fat and you're ready to serve your meat before it has time to loaf.

NANA'S MEATLOAF

Steps:

• 1. Combine all meatloaf ingredients in a large bowl and with clean hands mix all together until completely mixed.
• 2. In a loaf pan put your two slices of bread (the heels work best) in the bottom. (this soaks up the grease and ensures meatloaf doesnt burn on bottom)
• 3. Form meat mixture into a loaf and place in pan. I then push mine in so that it takes up the whole pan.
• 4. Bake in 350 degree preheated oven for an hour and 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and drain off any grease there might be. Now cover top of meatloaf with ketchup (you can also use tomato soup, i usually do) and sprinkle with parmesan.
• 5. Return to oven and continue baking until meatloaf is completely done. Another 10 to 15 minutes usually depending on oven.
• 6. Remove from oven and allow to cool a bit so meatloaf does not fall apart when cutting. You can cut it right in the pan (just remember the bread is on the bottom) or invert it onto a serving plate, remove bread and cut and serve.
