Vegetable Meatloaf
Ingredients
2 medium carrots
1 medium celery stalk
1 small onion
1 C. beef broth
1/4 C. breadcrumbs
1 tsp. parsley (or to taste)
1 medium egg, beaten
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 pound ground lean beef
Cooking Instructions
Place carrots, celery and onion in the container of a food processor or blender; process with on/off action until finely chopped (or shred by hand). Combine vegetables and 1/2 C. broth in a fry pan. Stir and cook over medium heat 7 minutes until vegetables are tender and crisp. Combine in a mixing bowl the remaining broth with breadcrumbs, parsley, egg, salt and pepper. Add braised vegetables and ground beef; mix thoroughly. Form into a firm loaf 2 inches thick. Place in a shallow baking dish large enough for juices to drain away from meat loaf. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 50 minutes until meat is no longer pink. Remove from oven and immediately place on a warm serving platter so fat will not be absorbed.
