I got this recipe off of the Fred Wix, Gabby Gourmet web site, Channel 2 News, Salt Lake City, Utah. I have never made the full recipe. I cut the amount of ground beef down to 2 lbs. and cut the remaining ingredients in half. It turns out great that way.

How To Make meatloaf from the daily grill

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place ground beef in a large mixing bowl. In a medium-sized skillet, heat the butter or oil and add the garlic and shallots; saute for 3 minutes then add onion, celery and carrots. Continue to saute until the vegetables are tender. Remove from pan and let cool.
  • Step 2
    Add all ingredients, including the cooled vegetables, to the meat and mix well. Oil or spray 2-4* loaf pans and line them with wax paper, then pack with meat mixture.
  • Step 3
    Fold the wax paper over the top of each loaf, then top with a large lettuce leaf. Cover the pan with foil.
  • Step 4
    Place pans in preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Allow to sit 15 minutes before cutting into serving sized pieces.
  • Step 5
    *Makes up to 4 loaves, depending on the size of your loaf pans. These loaves freeze well.
