| Hot out of the oven! |
So I pulled 3# of ground turkey out of the freezer so I could make meatloaf yesterday. Then guess what happened? My recipe called for eggs and I forgot I made the rest for breakfast! So I panicked and googled, "can you make meatloaf without eggs?" And someone had posted they used 1/4 cup of MAYO for each egg needed! Yahoo! So I tried it. Here is the funny part and some insight on *why* I'm not a good cook...I forgot it said 1/4 cup for each so I used 1/2 cup for each, meaning just over 1 cup of mayo in the meatloaf!!! So I laughed to myself and thought, well, that's what the adventure is all about...
It ended up tasting good but needed more of the spices. I didn't actually measure them like I usually do so next time I need to be a little more heavy handed, especially with 3# of meat!
Ingredients:
3 pounds ground hamburger (I used turkey)
2 cups shredded cheese (I used cheddar jack mix)
1 cup mayo (or maybe try it with 1/2 cup how it was supposed to be. lol)
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
garlic powder (or a couple tsp of minced)
onion powder (or if you aren't lazy, finely chop a real onion)
Italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350. Mix all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Mold into a loaf and add to greased meatloaf pan. Bake for 60-90 minutes until cooked through. I served with homemade mashed potatoes (I'll post the recipe for them next time I make them), canned corn and beef gravy.
