No Tomato Meatloaf And Mushroom Gravy Recipes

NO TOMATO MEATLOAF AND MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• In a mini chopper process torn bread slices into fine crumbs, put in a bowl and cover fold in the milk or 1/2 and 1/2 and set aside.
• Process garlic with a pinch of salt to a fine mince and set aside.
• Add 2 tbsp butter to a saute pan and sweat onions and the garlic until soft and translucent. Season with salt & pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool.
• In a large bowl add all meats, egg, wet breadcrumbs, cooled onion and garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper (using smallest measurements to begin), thyme, McCormick blend, Accent and 1/2 can cream of mushroom soup. Gently work all ingredients together. If the mixture seems too wet add 2-3 tbsp oats or more processed bread.
• Make a mini burger using 1-2 tbsp of the meat and saute over med/medhi heat. Cook through and taste to adjust seasoning.
• Cover a large cookie sheet with foil and form a large evenly sized brick shape.
• Place in a 350°F oven, center rack for.
• 1 hour. Check for doneness and cook up to 10-20 minutes more until desired doneness.
• Gravy: While meatloaf is baking.
• In a saucepan melt 3 tbsp butter and add in 3 tbsp flour, cook until a light golden brown. Whisk in remaining 1/2 can of soup and sour cream until all blended. Add in 1 can of chicken broth and pinch of sugar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring up to a boil to thicken, whisking, then reduce heat to simmer. If it doesn't seem thick enough for you, sprinkle with a bit of flour and whisk in quickly. When meatloaf is done, remove to a plate and cover with foil. Skim grease from the meatloaf drippings and whisk the degreased dripping to the gravy. Slice and serve with gravy.

CLASSIC MOCK MEATLOAF WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Toast the bread slices either in the toaster or on a baking sheet placed under the broiler. Let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan, then line the bottom with wax paper and butter the paper.
• Tear up the toasted bread slices and make crumbs out of them in a food processor. Place in a large bowl.
• Process the walnuts until finely ground and mix into the breadcrumbs. Combine the eggs and onions in the processor and process until fine but not liquefied. Stir into the breadcrumbs. Place the green pepper, celery, parsley, tomatoes, and oil in the processor and grind until fine but still with some texture. Stir into the loaf mixture along with the poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix this all very well until evenly moistened. (The mixture may be prepared to this point and refrigerated up to 8 hours in advance.) Scrape it into the prepared loaf pan and smooth over the top. Cover the loaf with foil.
• Bake 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center of the loaf comes out dry. Let sit 5 minutes, then run a knife all along the sides of the loaf to help loosen it. Unmold the loaf onto a platter and remove the wax paper. Let the loaf cool 20 minutes or so before slicing it. It's best to serve the loaf warm and the gravy hot.
• Melt the butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until brown, about 7 minutes. Stir in the flour; it will become very pasty. Cook this roux for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. It will stick to the bottom of the pan a little bit; that's okay.
• Stir in the stock, wine, soy sauce, and pepper, and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce at a lively simmer for 5 minutes, stirring almost constantly and scraping any crusty bits that adhere to the bottom of the pan. Serve in a sauceboat.
