Meat loaf, potatoes, and veggies all wrapped up in one dynamite dinner...Now that's smart cooking! You won't need any side dishes with this easy beef dinner because it's all cooked up into one tasty meal. All you'll need is a plate, a fork... and your appetitie!
What You'll Need
- 1 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed vegetarian vegetable soup
- 1 cup dry bread crumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 3 lightly beaten eggs, used separately
- 2 cup instant mashed potatoes, prepared according to package directions reducing water to 3/4 cup
What to Do
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients except potatoes and 1 egg.
-
On a rimmed cookie sheet or in a 9" x 13" glass baking dish that has been coated with nonstick vegetable spray, form the mixture into an oval-shaped loaf and bake for 1 hour.
-
While whipping the instant mashed potatoes with a fork, add the remaining beaten egg and whip until well blended.
-
When meat loaf has cooked for 1 hour, remove from oven and drain off grease in the pan. Completely "frost" meat loaf with the potatoes and return to the oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are slightly crusted and heated through.
