Recipe of the Week

Made-over Meatloaf
Serves 4-6, Prep time 10 min, Total Time 1 Hr 10 min

Ingredients:
2 cups bran flakes
1/2 cup BBQ sauce, divided
2 egg whites
3/4 lb extra lean ground beef
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1 carrot, shredded

Directions:
  1. Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Mix cereal, 1/3 cup bbq sauce, and egg whites in large bowl until well blended.  Add remaining ingredients and mix lightly.
  3. Shape into loaf; place on foil lined loaf of broiler pan.  Brush with remaining sauce.
  4. Bake one hour or until done (160 degrees).
This recipe is very vegetable-y, which is one reason it's healthier than traditional meatloaf.  I served mine with mashed potatoes.  I found this recipe on the Kraft recipes website.
