Comfort Food Meatloaf
Meatloaf is one of my favorite dishes, whether I prepare it or my mother prepares it. I’ve always used green peppers when I make it, but I didn’t have any one day, so I used yellow peppers. I LOVED the difference, and I will from now on use yellow peppers to make my meatloaf.
Ingredients
Method
- Chop the onion and pepper fine.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place the meat in a bowl.
- Add all of the ingredients except the bread crumbs.
- Mix well. I use my hands. I cannot get meatloaf mixed well with a spoon. Just stick your hand down in there and go at it. When it’s well mixed, it’s going to be wet.
- Add the bread crumbs just a few tablespoons at a time until you have a firmer, dryer consistency without it being a hard ball. You just want to touch it without it being sticky.
- Place in a loaf pan. Cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 15 minutes or so.

Notes
You can put some ketchup or tomato sauce on the top of the loaf before you bake it. I don’t like it that way as much as without, so I left it out of the recipe.
High in niacin, phosphorus, vitamin B6, and vitamin C, and very high in selenium, vitamin B12, and zinc.
