Ingredients:
– 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
– 1 cup breadcrumbs
– 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 cup finely chopped mushrooms
– 2 large eggs
– 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
– 1/2 cup milk
– 1 tablespoon ketchup
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup ketchup for topping
– 1/2 cup finely chopped onions
Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven: Start by heating your oven to 375F 190C.
2. Cook Vegetables: In a skillet, add a drizzle of oil and sauté the finely chopped onions until they become translucent. Introduce the chopped mushrooms and cook until theyre tender. Set this mixture aside to cool slightly.
3. Prepare Bacon Substitute: In the same skillet, add a bit more oil and cook a handful of plant-based bacon until crispy. Crumble and set aside.
4. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, Parmesan cheese, cooked vegetables, crumbled plant-based bacon, shredded Swiss cheese, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, garlic powder, dried thyme, black pepper, salt, and eggs. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
5. Shape the Meatloaf: Transfer the meat mixture into a lightly greased baking dish or shape it into a loaf on a lined baking sheet.
6. Add Topping: Spread the 1/2 cup of ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf for a flavorful glaze.
7. Bake: Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 60-70 minutes. Its done when the internal temperature reaches 160F 71C and its cooked through.
8. Rest and Serve: Once out of the oven, let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, making it easier to slice. Serve warm alongside your favorite side dishes!
