Meatloaf with Walnuts
This is my favorite meatloaf recipe. You can vary the spices as you like but this is the basics. I like to add 2 T of the salt free steak seasonings sometimes instead of the thyme. Enjoy.
-1 egg, beaten
-2T worcestershire sauce
-1/4C tomato paste
-1/2 t dried thyme
-1/2 t salt
-1/2 t pepper
-1/2 large onion
-2 garlic cloves, finely chopped or pressed
-2/3 C ground walnuts
-1 lb extra lean ground beef
-1/2 lb ground turkey or chicken breast
-1/3-1/2 C ketchup, sugar free (or tomato sauce)
-1/4 C parmesan cheese
Mix first six ingredients together. Add in onion, garlic, walnuts, and beef. Mix gently to combine. Add to a loaf pan and shape. Spread ketchup and sprinkle cheese on top. Bake at 375 for about 50 min. Let sit 10 min. Pour off any extra fat and slice.
