CLASSIC MEATLOAF WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Place the butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat; add in the thyme sprigs.
• When the pan is hot and the butter has melted, add in the mushrooms.
• Sauté until browned and until the mushrooms have given off their water; season with salt and pepper.
• Set aside to cool and discard the thyme sprigs.
• Preheat your oven to 375.
• In a large mixing bowl pour some Luke warm water over the bread slices and let the bread soak in the water; leave enough water to cover the bread.
• After the bread has completely softened and absorbed the water, drain the water out of the bowl and gently squeeze the excess water out of the bread.
• When you're left with soaked bread only, add the onion, ground beef, egg, garlic, Dijon mustard, the 1 tsp of salt and the ½ tsp of pepper to the bowl; mix well using your hand, stop mixing when everything has come together smoothly.
• When the meat mixture has come together, mix in the mushrooms.
• Transfer to a standard-sized, nonstick loaf pan.
• Bake for 45 minutes, until the meat is cooked through.
• Once out of the oven, drain off the excess fat and liquid.
• Turn the heat on the oven to 425 and then return the pan to the oven for another 5 minutes, just to create a yummy crunchy crust.
• Serve immediately or at room temperature.

CREAMY MUSHROOM MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Melt butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in mushrooms and a pinch of salt; cook and stir until mushrooms begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in fresh rosemary. Add flour and stir to coat the mushrooms; cook and stir for about 3 minutes.
• Whisk in beef broth, 1/2 cup at a time, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
• Turn heat to high and bring the sauce to a simmer. Simmer a few minutes until sauce starts to thicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Remove from heat and stir in heavy cream.
• Slide prepared meatloaf into the sauce. Spoon sauce over the top of the meatloaf.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
• Remove pan from the oven and gently remove meatloaf to a serving platter.
• Skim off any extra fat from the surface of the sauce.
• Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat to reduce until thick, about 5 minutes.
