Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/4 cup ketchup or chili sauce
2 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons cider or white vinegar
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black paper
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons Worchestershire sauce

2/3 cups crushed saltine crackers (about 16) or quick oatmeal or 1 1/3 cups fresh bread crumbs
1/3 cup minced parsley
6 ounces thin-sliced bacon

Steps:

  • For the glaze: Mix all ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
  • For the meatloaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a medium skillet. Add onion and garlic, saute until softened, about 5 minutes; set aside to cool.
  • Mix eggs with thyme, salt, pepper, mustard, Worchestershire, pepper sauce, and milk or yogurt. Add egg mixture to meat in a large bowl, along with crackers, oatmeal or bread crumbs, parsley and cook onions and garlic; mix with a fork until evenly blended and meat mixture does not stick to bowl. (If mixture does stick, add additional milk, a couple tablespoons at a time, and continue stirring until mixture stops sticking.)
  • Turn meat mixture onto a work surface. With wet hands, pat mixture into a loaf approximately 9 by 5 inches.
  • Cover a wire rack with foil; prick foil in several places with a fork. Place a rack on a shallow roasting pan lined with foil for easy cleanup.
  • Set formed loaf on rack. Brush loaf with all of glaze, then arrange bacon slices, crosswise, over loaf, overlapping them slightly and tucking them under to prevent curling.
  • Bake loaf until bacon is crisp and loaf registers 160 degrees, about 1 hour. Cool for at least 20 minutes. Slice and serve

Black Bean Vegetarian Meat Loaf image

This was a creation based on trying my first black bean vegetarian burger and deciding I had to learn how to make one, then I decided to go for a vegetarian meatloaf instead! Based on a 4 ounce serving, this recipe could be used to make twelve 4 ounce burgers instead of a meatloaf.

Provided by Val's Mom

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Meatloaf Recipes

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 (15 ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup diced multi-colored bell peppers
⅔ cup frozen corn kernels
½ cup diced onion, or to taste
24 slices jalapeno pepper, diced
1 egg white
1 (1 ounce) packet hot taco seasoning mix
1 (1 ounce) package spicy Ranch-style seasoning mix

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously coat the inside of an 8x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Mash black beans in a large bowl. Mix crackers, Cheddar cheese, bell peppers, corn, onion, jalapeno pepper, egg white, taco seasoning, and Ranch seasoning into black beans until evenly mixed. Spoon mixture into the prepared baking dish; form into a loaf.

Tips:

  • For a smoky flavor, use hickory or mesquite wood chips when grilling the meatloaf.
  • Use high-quality ground beef for the best results. A blend of chuck and sirloin works well.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the meatloaf is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute and keep the meatloaf moist.

Conclusion:

The Black, Bleu, and Bacon Meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a party or a weeknight meal. The combination of flavors and textures is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new meatloaf recipe, give this one a try.
