Whether you are cooking for two because you are empty nesters, or newly weds, there are certain favorite family recipes that simply make more food than we need. Meat loaf is one of those recipes that I've made (for a crowd) for years, but seldom make it these days because I'm left with to much extra. So, with a little tinkering, I've come up with an excellent meat loaf for two recipe and, I'm happy to say, meatloaf is back on the menu.
It's called "meatloaf for two" but, in reality, since it is made from half a pound of ground beef, you can easily serve two and still have enough for a nice meatloaf sandwich the next day (always a good thing).
MEAT LOAF FOR TWO
½ pound of lean ground beef (90% lean)
3 tablespoons chopped onion
1 egg
1/3 cup saltine cracker crumbs (fine)
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon ground cumin powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
Mix all ingredients and shape into two oval patties (or loaves). Place them on a flat baking sheet (spritzed with cooking spray), a few inches apart (make sure the baking sheet has a lip, so any meat juices won't end up in your oven. Brush with meatloaf glaze and bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes.
MEATLOAF GLAZE
¼ cup ketchup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
¼ teaspoon worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon ground mustard powder
few drops of liquid smoke (optional)
Whisk together and completely cover the meatloaves (use all of the sauce).
