My new favorite lunch:
When Natalie was diagnosed with Celiac Disease, I signed up to get daily recipes from Gluten Free Club. I didn't have to sign up for the club to get the recipes, so, game on. Every once in a while they will send a recipe that uses mostly "regular" food. Yesterday they sent a meatloaf recipe that is amazing! I changed it a little, but it was still very good!
1 1/2 lbs. ground pork
3 eggs
1 cup cooked rice
1 1/2 cups grated cheddar
cheese
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons dried
chopped chives
2 cloves chopped garlic (or you could add onion)
1 teaspoon dried basil
+ 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 cup ketchup
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F degrees.
Mix all ingredients together well in a very large bowl.
Press mixture into a loaf pan (the temps and times are for glass loaf pans.)
Bake for 55 minutes.
**I put the mixture into jumbo muffin tins (greased) and filled them with the meat mixture 3/4 full. Individual serving sizes are fun! They may not need to be cooked 55 min. I think I cooked mine for 45-50 min.
Remove from oven and pour off some fat.
Cover tops of meatloaves with a generous layer of ketchup.
Bake 15 minutes longer.
Cool 10 to 15 minutes before cutting loaf.
