Frosted Meatloaf (Beef or Turkey) image

This is dinner party fare. Looks like it stepped from a food magazine. Easy to make. All ingredients can be made ahead, then chilled & baked. If chilled allow 10 minutes more baking time. Make sure mashed potatoes are room temperature before frosting.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lbs lean ground beef or 2 lbs ground turkey
1 tablespoon A.1. Original Sauce
1/2 cup minced onion
1 teaspoon dried cilantro
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup crushed saltine crackers or 1 cup dry breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Catalina dressing
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or 1 1/2 cups shredded colby cheese
2 cups hot mashed potatoes (3 medium potatoes boiled)
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup Miracle Whip
1/2 teaspoon salt or 1/2 teaspoon salt substitute
paprika
1 lb broiled mushroom

Steps:

  • In large bowl mix ground meat and A-1 sauce, minced onion, cilantro. Add beaten eggs, mix well. Add crackers or bread crumbs and catalina dressing and white pepper. Mix. Add cheese 1/2 cup at a time and mix, then add another until all cheese is mixed.
  • Form into an oval loaf, place in low side baking pan. Chill if desired.
  • Bake 350* 1 hour. Allow ten more minutes if chilled. I suggest placing a pan on the rack underneath to catch any grease drips from beef or turkey and the melted cheese sometimes drips from the bottom side. I have used a sharp cheese also. When cold this makes an excellent cold meat loaf sandwich. Some family members prefer cold.
  • Cook 3 medium potatoes in water or microwave, peel and mash. Add beaten egg and miracle whip and salt. You may prepare instant potatoes if you desire. Make sure they are a little on the stiff side before adding the egg, miracle whip and salt.
  • When loaf is baked, frost with mashed potatoes. Spread on with spatula. Make peaks all over it.You can also brush melted margarine over it but watch carefully when it is broiling.
  • Broil about 5 inches away until peaks are browned. Take out of oven. Sprinkle with paprika if desired. Broil fresh mushrooms at the same time.
  • Let set ten minutes before serving. Cut in wedges. Serve on a platter with broiled fresh mushrooms surrounding the loaf and slices of lemon in between.

Mom used to make this with leftover mashed potatoes. Now I use Idahoan Instant Potatoes. I like them a lot and it makes this recipe easier.

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large egg
1/3 c quick oats
1/3 c catsup
1/2 tsp each salt and pepper
1 1/2 lb lean ground beef
4 servings warm mashed potatoes, prepared
1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese (or more if preferred)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl beat egg slightly. Add oats, catsup, salt and pepper and mix well. Mix in ground beef. Shape into a loaf and place in an 8 by 4 inch loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  • 2. Prepare mashed potatoes while meatloaf is baking. Add a bit more liquid than called for usually so potatoes will spread easily. Remove meatloaf from oven, cool a bit. Remove from pan and drain. Place on a large oven proof pie plate or serving plate. "Frost" or cover meatloaf on sides and top with mashed potatoes. Bake for 15 minutes more. Sprinkle cheese on top and return to hot oven until cheese is melted. Slice and serve.
