MAMA'S BEST MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Here's what you need to do:
• Preheat oven to 375° F.
• Place your torn bread in the bowl of a food processor.
• Process into small crumbs.
• Dump the bread crumbs into a large bowl.
• Replace the bowl on the food processor and add the carrots, onion, celery and garlic.
• Process for a few seconds. Remove lid and scrape down the sides.
• Continue processing until the vegetables are extremely fine.
• Place all of the ingredients in a large bowl.
• Mix well. You're gonna have to use your hands to get it mixed up good. I've never known anyone to be able to mix meatloaf up using a spoon.
• Place in a 9 x 13 glass baking dish and shape into a loaf...wait a minute...something doesn't look right. Oops, I forgot the parsley.
• Okay, if you forgot to add the parsley like I did, dump it back into the bowl and add the parsley.
• Okay, now you'll need to mix it up one more time.
• Put it back into the baking dish and shape it into a loaf.
• In a small bowl mix together the topping ingredients.
• Spread the topping on the meatloaf. Don't get it too close to the edge or it will slide off in the oven.
• Bake in a preheated 375° oven for 1 hour or until it reaches an internal temperature of 170°.
• Allow to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing so that the juices don't all run out when you cut it.
• I hope you enjoy what I think is the best meatloaf recipe!
