Hey all! I’ve got a comfort food fave to share with a secret sauce that I use on top. I usually make this with the timeless comfort food classic of home made mac and cheese. But make it with whatever your favorites are. I hope this feeds you physically as I hope the Wednesday posts feed you spiritually…
Meatloaf with Sauce
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef or ground turkey
about 1/2 cups diced onion
2 eggs
Season Salt
Onion Powder
2 Tbl. milk
About 1 cup bread crumbs
In a large mixing bowl place all ingredients (use the season salt and onion powder to taste) and blend them well with your hands. I find the method of taking sections of the meatloaf mixture and forming them into oval shaped patties and placing them on a cookie sheet works really well. This gives individual servings and makes it very easy to freeze any leftovers. To make things even easier, line the cookie sheet with parchment paper.
The sauce to top each patty is as follows:
about 1 cup ketchup
about 1/2 cup brown sugar
1 envelope dry onion soup mix
Stir these ingredients together in a small bowl then spoon on to each patty. Cover the sheets with foil and bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour. Enjoy individual servings and freeze the rest in freezer zip lock bags. Great for a week night when your in a hurry.
This is Me
Hi, I’m Cyndi! I am a wife to a wonderful God-fearing man for almost twenty years. I am a mom to an ambitious comedic eighteen-year-old son and a spirited fun-loving sixteen-year-old daughter. I love to cook, create anything I can think of to make, talk and visit with friends and even strangers, and of course I love to write. Along with the writing, I love to read what other people write as well. I would love to live in the south somewhere but for now I live more in the suburbs of a town in Michigan. Oh yeah… and I’m almost blind. This means that I have to do things a little differently. It takes a little more time and a little more patience to get things done, but they get done. I was told of my eye disease when I was nine years old. At forty-four, they still cannot diagnose what I have for certain. However, I won’t sit still while they try and figure it out. Each day brings different challenges and some of the same as well. Navigating new territory is the most difficult thing for me to do, but I refuse to be held back and take the chance on missing out on an exciting new adventure. My bucket list holds adventures like parasailing, visiting Ireland, having at least one book published, and I’m sure there are more that I haven’t listed yet. Painting word pictures is my therapy and sanctuary. I use life as my brushes and paint. Lite me a candle, put on the spa music and a-writing I will go. Come on this journey with me, I hope you can find some new colors you like.
