Ingredients
-
2 lbs. ground meat -- 85% to 90% lean works well. I've used beef, turkey, and combinations.
1 cup TVP
¼ cup finely choppped onion or 1 Tbsp dehydrated onion flakes
2 cloves garlic, minced, or 1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tsp dry mustard powder
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried sage
½ tsp black pepper
2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp salt
1 egg
¼ cup water or milk
Directions
Preparation:
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Using your hands is easiest, but don't overmix. Bake in a loaf pan, several small loaf pans, or make individual ones. Bake at 350 F for about 1 hour for a large loaf. (Some people say that baking it longer at 325 F produces a better texture. I have not tried this.) Muffin-cup meatloaves cook in about 15 to 20 minutes. To be sure the meatloaf is done, insert a meat thermometer, which should reach 155 F in the center of the loaf.
About 10 to 15 minutes before you think the meatloaf will be done, you can cover it with sugar-free picante sauce.
