MOM'S MEAT LOAF
Mom made the best meatloaf, and now I do, too. When I first met my husband, he didn't care for homemade meatloaf, but this won him over. -Michelle Beran, Claflin, Kansas

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Pulse the celery, carrots and onions in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the oil to a saute pan over medium-low heat, then add the chopped veggies and cook, covered, until translucent. Transfer the veggies to a plate and cool in the refrigerator.
- Meanwhile, mix together the panko, buttermilk, ketchup, Worcestershire and eggs in a bowl. Add the parsley, salt, black pepper and cayenne and mix well. Once the veggies are cool, add them to the mixture and incorporate. Next add the ground beef and pork and mix thoroughly with your hands.
- Line two loaf pans with parchment paper and divide the meatloaf mixture between them. Cover with foil and bake until the meatloaves reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 1 hour. Slice and serve immediately, or cool, slice and reheat. Serve with Herb Aioli and Spicy Hollandaise.
- Add the mayonnaise, olive oil, sage, green onions, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper and egg yolks to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and well incorporated.
- Melt the butter in small saucepan over medium heat. Blend the yolks, hot sauce, wine, salt and pepper in a blender, then drizzle in the melted butter while blending, until the sauce is smooth.
MOM'S MEATLOAF
This is the only meatloaf I ever liked! Seasoned with fresh onion,a touch of bell pepper, and glazed with a sweet ketchup sauce. For our small family, we cook one loaf and freeze the other to cook at a later time.
