Homestyle Meatloaf

Last night we had meatloaf on the menu, but I just didn't feel like making the old favourites... So I went online and found a recipe I did not regret trying! It is simply delicious!! There are quite a few variations you could try with this flexible recipe, like adding finely chopped capsicum (bell pepper), chopped tomatoes, grated carrot... the options are endless!!

1/2 cup ketchup (tomato sauce)
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 (1 pound) (450g) package Bob Evans® Original Recipe Sausage Roll - this is sausage mince
1 pound (450g) lean ground beef
1/4 cup chopped onion (I just used 1 medium onion)
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup uncooked quick oats (some people substitue this with some instant rice for a gluten free version)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Preheat oven to 180ºC (350ºF).
Combine ketchup, brown sugar and mustard in small bowl; set aside.
Combine 1/3 cup ketchup mixture and remaining ingredients in large bowl; mix well. Shape mixture into loaf in shallow baking dish.
Bake 1 hour and remove from oven. Pour remaining mixture over loaf and bake an additional 10 minutes.
Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve hot. Refrigerate leftovers.

August Menu Planner

Back at the beginning of July, I decided to try a new idea - making a menu plan for the whole month, and trying to really stick at it in an attempt to be more frugal (using ingredients on hand rather than shopping for special ingredients when they are required on impulse). July's menu plan went really well, so I have set up a plan for this month as well. I thought you might find it interesting to see what we'll be eating this month... And if you think any of these recipes sound interesting, ask and I will post them, if possible! (The links take you to the recipes I've already posted, for your convenience).
