AWESOME AND SIMPLE ITALIAN GARLICKY MEATLOAF



Awesome and Simple Italian Garlicky Meatloaf image

This meat loaf is so flavorful, but doesn't require endless ingredients! It is simple and soooo good. I almost always have the ingredients on hand straight from the pantry. My family loves it, it tastes even better leftover, and it makes the house smell delicious! Can be frozen for OAMC. I have adjusted the breadcrumbs per the reviews, the key is to use only as much as you need to make a moist dough. If your ground beef is very low in fat, like sirloin, you will need fewer breadcrumbs, however higher fat beef, like chuck, will absorb a larger amount of breadcrumbs.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 loaf, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2-1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
5 tablespoons grated dry parmesan cheese (Romano is a good choice, also)
5 tablespoons minced parsley (I use dried to save effort)
2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 lbs ground beef (not too lean)
2 eggs
ketchup, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a large loaf pan.
  • Mix 1/2 cup bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper, reserving the remaining bread crumbs to use as necessary.
  • Add the meat and use a fork to mix the ingredients uniformly.
  • Add the eggs and knead it with your hands until a "dough" ball forms, it should hold its shape and not be too dry and crumbly (add some water) or too sticky sloppy (add more bread crumbs).
  • Mold the meat mixture into the loaf pan and top with a layer of ketchup as desired.
  • Bake for 70 minutes. Slices best when cooled and tastes even better reheated as leftovers!
  • For OAMC: Slice cooled loaf and flash freeze slices on a cookie sheet. Once frozen, store in a freezer bag or container. To reheat: remove as many slices as necessary and reheat in microwave.
