KATIE JOEL'S MEATLOAF RECIPE



Katie Joel's Meatloaf Recipe image

This recipe is for the best meatloaf. It makes a moist, tasty and filling dinner treat. The recipe comes from Katie Joel's new cookbook. She makes this for Billy Joel and Paula Deen etc and they love it. I can see why. I followed the recipe except I didn't have parchment paper so I sprayed the baking sheet before putting the meatloaf on it. My oven took 10 minutes more to make it perfection but otherwise it was straight from the recipe. Don't skimp on the fresh herbs they make the recipe flavors melt together and enhance it so much. My husband, mother and children loved it. Katie Joel writes, "I like to call meat loaf 'man loaf' because it's every man's favorite dish," Katie says. "My husband loves when I make meat loaf, and it makes the best leftovers." Further she says, "We love it the next day on white bread with mayonnaise." I do too. Try it and you might start liking meatloaf again. Happy tasting.

KATE'S HEARTY MEATLOAF



Kate's Hearty Meatloaf image

I have made many different meatloaf recipes, but this is the one I will make from now on. This recipe is from Kate Gosselin from " John and Kate plus Eight" . This is a clever way to sneak vegetables onto picky eaters plates. It seems like alot of vegetables, but if you use the food processor on pulse to shred the vegetables finely without pureeing them, they cook down to nothing. What you have is a moist, flavorful meatloaf. I have one of the world's most pickiest eaters and even he ate it and said it was very good.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of meats. Ground beef is the most common meat used in meatloaf, but you can also use ground pork, ground veal, or a mixture of meats. This will give your meatloaf a more complex flavor.
  • Add some vegetables. Vegetables add moisture and flavor to meatloaf. Some good options include onions, carrots, celery, and zucchini. You can also add some herbs, such as parsley, sage, or thyme.
  • Use a good quality breadcrumb. The breadcrumb helps to bind the meatloaf together and gives it a nice texture. Use a fine-grained breadcrumb, such as panko or bread crumbs made from white bread.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf. Overmixing the meatloaf will make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Cook the meatloaf at a low temperature. This will help to prevent the meatloaf from drying out. Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing. This will help the meatloaf to hold its shape and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Katie's Meatloaf Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make sauce that can be used on meatloaf, meatballs, or even chicken. The sauce is made with a variety of ingredients, including tomatoes, onions, garlic, and herbs. It is simmered until it is thick and flavorful. This sauce is a great way to add some extra flavor to your meatloaf. It is also a good way to use up any leftover vegetables that you have. So next time you make meatloaf, be sure to try Katie's Meatloaf Sauce. You won't be disappointed!
