I am going to try to start adding a recipe every month, so this is my one for Sept. This is a recipe that I got from the pampered chef when I ordered my stone loaf pan. I don't really like traditional meat loaf, but I will eat this one. It is really good and Eric loves it! It's kind of high in fat, but that's okay every once and a while, right?
2 eggs
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley, divided
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 cloves garlic, pressed
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon tarragon
1 teaspoon dried mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 lbs lean ground beef
1/2 cup chopped green onions(green portion included)
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup shredded swiss cheese
2 oz prosciutto or other smoked ham, chopped coarsely
Preheat oven to 350 deg. Beat eggs. Add 2 T parsley, bread crumbs, broth, garlic, salt, tarragon, mustard, and pepper. Beat well. Mix in ground beef. Set aside.
Saute onions in butter until soft. Blend cheese, ham, remaining parsley and onions in a medium bowl; set aside.
Divide the meat mixture into 2 equal parts. Pat one into loaf pan to form a layer. Top with cheese mixture. Pat remaining meat mixture on top of cheese.
Bake 45 min. Remove loaf pan from oven and drain off fat. Bake an additional 30 min. Cool 15 min., then remove from loaf pan and cool completely in refrigerator. Cut into thin slices for sandwiches. May also be served hot. (We usually eat it hot with a side of green beans or salad or some other side dish)
