I have really been experimenting with my kiddie meatloaf to try and get it the right consistency. The first time I made it it was extremely mushy (not enough breadcrumbs). The girls still downed it, but it bothered me that it really didn't have a meatloaf consistency. I made my 2nd batch a few weeks ago and it turned out YUMMY. I liked it so much I even ate what the girls didn't finish. I love making it and freezing it in small portions just to take out in a pinch. Here's my recipe:
-1lb grassfed no antibiotic/hormone ground beef - I use HEB brand
-2cups of steamed pureed frozen organic veggies-- any you have! i used peas & broccoli--- steam & then puree
-1+ cups of bread crumbs.. I eyeballed it to get it to the consistency I wanted it
-1 egg
-garlic & onion powder & italian seasoning for flavor
-4tbsp of ketchup
Mix everything together (with hands:)) and transfer to a loaf pan. Bake at 375 for 1-1:15 hours or until it reaches 170degrees.
I think next time I will add very finely chopped spinach to add even more veggies. Enjoy!
