Hello all! Sorry that summer school finals stole me away from the kitchen and here, but I'm back now! In honor of this week-long hiatus between summer school and Fall semester I am going to try to make and post something new each day! Today is a double-header with Grandma's Meatloaf and Red Potatoes with Dill.
Poor meatloaf has a reputation as a flavorless blob, but I think this recipe could change things up. It's like a giant delicious meatball with ketchup on top! It's also super easy to make and is even yummier the next day. What could be better?
Grandma's Meatloaf
Ingredients:
2 1/2 lb. ground sirloin
1/2 tsp. salt

1 1/2 c. cracker crumbs (I like to crush saltines for this)
Directions:
1. Mix ingredients together in a bowl with your hands.
2. Shape meat mixture into a loaf and place in a glass baking dish or casserole.
3. Pour 1/2 c. of water into the dish.
