Sneak The Veggies In The Meatloaf Recipes

SNEAK THE VEGGIES IN THE MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray loaf pan with cooking spray. Combine beef, carrot, celery, and cauliflower.
• Mix the egg into the meat mixture.
• Mix the boullion granules with the water until dissolved. Pour this into the meat mixture, mix until combined. Add the crackers, onion powder, and pepper. Mix well.
• Press into the loaf pan and bake for approximately 45 minutes. I use a stone loaf pan, so your cooking time may be different if you use glass or metal pans.

HIDDEN VEGGIE MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Combine ground beef, ground turkey, egg, celery, rolled oats, skim milk, ketchup, onion, green pepper, parsley, dry mustard, salt, minced garlic, and black pepper in a bowl until thoroughly combined; mixture will be moist. Transfer mixture into a 5x9-inch loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the meatloaf reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 1 1/2 hours. Meatloaf may still look pink inside due to ketchup.
