Easy Meatloaf Recipe W/ Montreal Potatoes

2 lb Ground Beef
1 Egg
1 Large White Onion Chopped
1 Cup of Milk
1 Cup Smashed Saltine Crackers
Salt, Pepper and Garlic to taste
1 Cup of Ketchup


Preheat oven to 350
In a large bowl bring ground beef, egg, onion, milk, crackers, seasonings for taste and ketchup together. Work together with very clean and dry hands. Place meatloaf mixture together in a 5x9 slightly greased pan. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes. At ten minutes before the meatloaf is to come out drizzle to top of the loaf with Ketchup, as much as you desire. Let the ketchup bake in for at least ten minutes to brown and form the right consistency.


Montreal Potatoes (YUMMY, YUMMY)
6 Large Potatoes Diced or cubed
1/2 cup to 1 cup of melted butter
1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of Montreal seasoning


Preheat oven to 375. In a large baking dish add diced potatoes. make sure that the potatoes do not overlap each other too much. You want the potatoes to cook evenly and having a whole bunch of potatoes on top of each other will cause the potatoes not to brown evenly. Add melted butter to dish, cover the bottom of the dish evenly. The bottom of the pan needs to be coated very well in the dish but too much butter will cause mushy potatoes. Next, cover the top of the potatoes with Montreal seasoning. It depends on how much spice you want but remember that a little bit of Montreal goes a long way. So, I would sprinkle the whole top moderately with the seasoning. Bake for 45 minutes or until the potatoes look nice and roasted and almost all of the butter has been cooked out. The perfect Montreal Potato is buttery, spicy crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside! ENJOY!

I serve vegetables with every meal. Personally I would serve this up with Brussels Sprouts or Asparagus and White Hominy or Corn. There are wonderful recipes for vegetables but that is another posting.

Happy Eating!
