Meatloaf

Here is another traditional favorite that everyone will love.

1 Pound Grass Fed Ground Beef
1 Small Yellow Onion, Chopped
1 Clove Garlic, Minced
1⁄2 Cup Flat Leaf Parsley, Finely Chopped
1 Large Cage Free Egg, Lightly Beaten
1 Cup Sprouted Grain Bread, Lightly Toasted and Processed into Crumbs
2⁄3 Cup Organic Tomato Paste, or Fruit Sweetened Ketchup (no sugar), Divided 1 Teaspoon Sea Salt
1⁄2 Teaspoon Pepper

Preheat oven to 375oF. In a medium bowl, combine chopped onion, garlic, parsley, egg, and 1⁄3 cup ketchup. Add breadcrumbs and beef. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined. Place mixture in a 6 cup capacity loaf pan (8 x 4 inch) or simply shape into a loaf in a glass baking dish. Pat gently to make a rounded top. Do not pack. Bake meatloaf 50 minutes. Remove from oven; brush with remaining 1/3 cup tomato paste or ketchup. Return to the oven; Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads 160oF, approximately 10 – 20 minutes. Cool meatloaf for 10 minutes in the pan before slicing.
