Bonnies Meatloaf With Prosciutto Surprise Recipes

BONNIE'S KILLER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, tomato paste, kitchen bouquet.
• 2. Add all the seasonings and spices.
• 3. Stir in peppers, onions and celery.
• 4. Add the ground meat and sage sausage. Mix well. Best mixed with your hands.
• 5. Stir in the croutons and mix well.
• 6. Form the loaf and place in a meatloaf pan.
• 7. "Frost" the top of the meatloaf with the leftover tomato paste as depicted in the photo.
• 8. Tent the meatloaf loosely. Bake meatloaf in a 350 degree, pre-heated oven for 1 1/2 hours or until it reaches an internal temperature of 175 degrees. (I use a meat thermometer.) Remove tin foil the last 15 minutes. Let meatloaf stand covered loosely for 15 minutes. Spritz with a couple of sprays of butter flavored kitchen spray to give it a glossy appearance, and this is how it looks.
• 9. Place the meatloaf on a platter and slice it to serve. You can serve it without gravy because it is so moist. That is the way I like it. The guys, of course, have to have their gravy! Enjoy!
