Meatloaf - Try this recipe on some kids and see if they like it!

Here is a recipe I promised for Meatloaf. It is so simple to make and if you make it on Sunday you could have it in the kids lunches Monday. It is not Paleo friendly with the breadcrumbs and ketchup, but it is very appealing to the kids!

Ingredients.

1.5 lbs ground beef (or minced turkey or chicken if you want to watch calories)
1 small onion chopped
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup Parsley, chopped
1/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon crushed garlic (optional)
2 eggs, beaten
Salt / Pepper

Glaze:
1/2 cup Ketchup (or you could make a tomato sauce yourself with tin of tomatoes, onion, garlic and pinch of sugar)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon mustard
Dash of Worcestershire Sauce

Directions

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius.
Place all your meatloaf ingredients into a bowl, and using clean hands, combine the ingredients.
In a separate bowl, mix your glaze ingredients.
Remove the meat mixture from the bowl and form a loaf on a pan or baking dish. Spread some of the glaze over the loaf. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes. Add more glaze after 45 minutes then cook for another 15 minutes. Once the loaf is done (not pink in the middle), remove from oven and add more glaze.

Slice up and enjoy :)

You can decide yourself how much glaze you like, if you are packing this for kids lunches, it might get messy with too much glaze so go easy on the last bit of glaze..
