Recipe by David Bonom
Add Italian flavor to a homestyle meat loaf recipe with tomato-basil pasta sauce, Italian breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese and oregano. Line the bottom part of the broiler pan with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds 92% lean ground beef
- 1 cup fat-free tomato-basil pasta sauce, divided
- 1/2 cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) preshredded fresh Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large egg whites
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °.
- Combine beef, 1/2 cup pasta sauce, and remaining ingredients except cooking spray in a large bowl. Shape beef mixture into an 8 x 4-inch loaf on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Brush remaining 1/2 cup pasta sauce over top of meat loaf. Bake at 350 ° for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160 °. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut loaf into 12 slices.
- Wine Note: Anything Italian-style seems like a candidate for Chianti, but with a humble meat loaf like this, I like something more full-bodied. A California syrah has enough concentration to mirror the density of the ground beef, and it makes the meat loaf seem just a bit grander. Try Arrowood's Grand Archer 2001 Syrah from Sonoma County, California (about $20). -Karen MacNeil
