BETTER THAN MOM'S SWEET AND SAVORY MEATLOAF
I never thought I'd find, let alone be able to make, a meatloaf better than my mother's electric skillet recipe. But when I wanted to make it last night, I realized that I didn't have her recipe. So I came to recipezaar and read a few popular ones and came up with my own based off my ingredients at hand and the popping flavors of herbs that I personally love. Well, don't tell mamma, but I think I'll be making it this way from now on. I'm telling you, this was the most moist, flavorful, savory and sweet (even a little spicy) meatloaf I've ever had. And I can't believe I just made it up! (I'm a little new at this.) The sauce is on the sweet side, but the herbs and spices inside give it a little kick which creates a perfect balance. Use less and more of what you need to get the taste suited to your liking. Chili powder might give it even more of a kick. Enjoy! Tip 1 - The moisture factor: A lot of meatloaf recipes call for milk, tomato paste, condensed milk, or water to add moisture. I was out of milk, didn't want to open full cans of paste or condensed milk just to waste the rest, and I didn't want to have to settle for boring water, so leftover chucky pasta sauce was a perfect substitute. It not only added some veggies, but the additional seasonings and vinegar already in the sauce meant that I didn't have to use additional vinegar, veggies, or waste full cans of ingredients just to get what I needed. Tip 2 - The healthy and economic factors/alternatives: I've had gastric surgery and as such found that ground beef was a little too fatty for my liking. I'm going to try this with ground turkey next time. I'll need to up the moisture (pasta sauce) content and will probably need to use a nonstick cooking spray (unnecessary when using fatty ground beef) on the loaf pan so that the sides won't stick. I eat a slice and then cut and freeze the remaining slices to take as lunch or have for future dinners for the rest of the week. Saves me a ton of money!

Steps:
- PREP: Place oven rack on middle setting and preheat oven to 350 degrees. If using a less fatty meat, use a non-stick cooking spray to lightly coat the inside of your loaf pan. (If using ground beef, it is unnecessary to spray or grease your pan.). Lightly press the separate 2 tbsp of the packed brown sugar into the bottom of your loaf pan. Put like ingredients into prep bowls for ease in mixing later - this helps when you'll only have one hand (especially at least the dry ingredients of bread crumbs, salt, and pepper). Hint: thaw meat fully and bring cold ingredients (eggs, pasta sauce, sauce ingredients, etc) to room temperature prior to combining - this will aid in even cooking and correct cook time. (Waiting for items to reach room temperature is the bulk of your prep time, so your actual "work" prep time v. "waiting" prep time is about 5 min of work and 15-20 min of waiting.).
- SAUCE: Stir the remaining tbsp of brown sugar and the rest of the sauce ingredients in a bowl until combined. Sauce should be slightly runny. With a spatula, lightly drizzle some rows of the sauce over the brown sugar in the bottom of the loaf pan. Do not fully cover. Set the remaining majority of the sauce aside.
- LOAF: In a small skillet, sweat the diced onion over low heat. Half way through, add the garlic. (The onions and garlic do not cook inside the loaf and therefore you must heat them before.) Do not let them brown or carmelize. In a large mixing bowl, gently break up the meat with one hand (keep your other hand free and clean to hold the bowl and add in your other ingredients). When they are cool enough, slowly add in the onions and garlic until completely folded. Then add the pasta sauce, parsley, basil, garlic powder, and marjoram until blended. Next, you will alternate combining the dry ingredients (bread crumbs, salt, pepper combination) and half of the beaten eggs. Repeat dry ingredients and eggs until fully mixed. Shape mixture into a loaf and transfer it into your loaf pan. Gently press the loaf down and against the sides until you have a flat top service (as the meat cooks, it will pull away from the sides and form the classic "loaf" shape"). Pour the majority of the sauce over the top of your loaf and spread it evenly until covered (I like to keep just a tiny bity of sauce to drizzle over the loaf when there is about 10 min of cook time left, but you can add it all at this point if you like).
- Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, checking occassionally. Add more sauce when and if necessary. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the meatloaf mix, breadcrumbs, spinach, mushrooms, prunes, dill, parsley, Worcestershire, eggs, garlic, onion, 1/4 cup of the ketchup, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large mixing bowl. Using your hands, mix together until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and form it into a compact oval-shaped loaf, about 9 inches by 5 inches. Bake the meatloaf for 30 minutes.
- Stir together the apricot preserves, soy sauce, ginger, vinegar and remaining 1/4 cup ketchup in a small bowl for the glaze. Remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush the top and sides all over with the glaze. Return to the oven and bake until the glaze starts to caramelize and a thermometer inserted in the center of the meatloaf registers 160 degrees F, about 25 minutes more. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
BETTER THAN MOM'S MEATLOAF
My mom's classic meatloaf was lacking in flavor and the topping was way too sweet. This "better than mom's" version still has lots of old-school appeal but has been kicked up a notch with a rich and savory flavor, plus we said goodbye to the sugary sweet topping. Sliced meatloaf leftovers make the best sandwiches. I like mine with mustard, cheese, and grilled onions!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly coat a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
- Combine onion, bell pepper, milk, eggs, garlic, 2 tablespoons ketchup, parsley, 3 teaspoons Worcestershire, thyme, and Dijon in a large bowl and mix well. Stir in bread crumbs. Add ground sirloin, salt, and pepper; mix until just combined. Form mixture into a loaf shape and fit into the prepared pan.
- Combine remaining ketchup with balsamic vinegar and remaining 1 teaspoon Worcestershire in a small bowl. Mix until well combined and spread over the top of the meatloaf.
- Bake in the preheated oven until an instant read thermometer inserted in the center reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 1 hour. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. The longer it sits, the easier it will be to slice.

MEATLOAF, BETTER THAN MOM'S
This is an adapted recipe from one my mother used to make. My favorite part of meatloaf was always the tangy candied topping. I hope you like this version.
