Chipotle meatloaf

Meatloaf takes an hour to cook, and no matter how you slice it, it leads to a pretty meat-intensive meal, so we don’t have it that often. But when we do, we like to really enjoy it! I discovered recently that adding chipotle sauce to the mix (and slopping some more on top) makes a mighty tasty meatloaf :-)

Chipotle Meatloaf

3/4 c bread crumbs or stuffing mix
1/4 c water
1 lb ground beef
Egg
1/4 c chipotle sauce (more for topping)

Heat the water and soften the bread crumbs in a large bowl. Add all the rest of the ingredients, mixing by hand. Shape into a loaf and place in bread loaf pan, covered with foil. Cook at 400 for about an hour.

LOL!! Jean, I have to admit that when it comes to meatloaf, I am just a total pig. That’s why we don’t have it too often ;-)

Chipotle – or any spicy sauce – perks up the taste buds (if you don’t overdo it) and I find I eat less but feel just as satisfied. This is a great way to keep some family favorites in your diet even if you’re on a DIET.

Thanks, Cyndi!
