Even though the boys were given the day off to celebrate President's Day, it didn't mean Mom was given the day off also, unfortunately. It's always a challenge working from home when the kiddos are not only home, but stuck inside due to weather.
Jeremy was sweet enough to take the load off me and prepare a hearty afternoon lunch for everyone - meatloaf, garlic and herb mashed potatoes and green beans. As a treat to me (and I'm guessing because that's what I stocked the fridge with) he sauteed fresh green beans. (We're at odds when it comes to fresh green beans...I love the squeak, and he says it's like fingernails on a chalkboard.) Yikes.
Meatloaf SERVINGS: 6
INGREDIENTS:
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Mix together beef, Wildtree Just Like Mom's Meatloaf mix, soy sauce, eggs and milk. Mold meatloaf into loaf pan. Top with ketchup. Bake for one hour.
**We're used to adding finely diced carrots and onions to our meatloaf. I suppose it's a way to add another vegetable, but best of all, it gives the meatloaf a good crunch, which everyone in this house loves. We decided we'll be making those additions going forward.
He added a little bit of Wildtree's Garlic & Herb blend to the mashed potatoes, which was a delicious twist to the usual mashed potatoes.
The green beans are simple to make. After washing and clipping ends off, he sauteed them in a little bit of natural grapeseed oil, minced garlic and soy sauce. I could eat a whole bowl of them right now!
