Stovetop Stuffing Meatloaf

Using stovetop stuffing makes meatloaf incredibly savory and the chunks of dried bread create a kind of a tiny mosaic in each slice. With a perfectly thick, sticky and sweet topping this meatloaf is an awesome easy dinner option to whip up any day of the week.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • cooking spray

  • 1 1/2 pounds 80/20 ground beef

  • 1 (6 ounce) box chicken stuffing (such as Stovetop)

  • 1/2 cup water

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning

  1. Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line an 8- x 4-inch loaf pan with a double layer of aluminum foil, leaving a 3-inch overhang on the long sides. Lightly coat with cooking spray and place on a baking sheet.

  6. Return to the oven and continue baking at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest portion of meatloaf registers 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

Homemade Lasagna

Homemade Lasagna

This is my mom's special homemade lasagna recipe with a meaty, made-from-scratch tomato sauce and a deliciously cheesy filling. A more traditional homemade lasagna filling would be made with ricotta but my mom's recipe calls for a blend of small-curd cottage cheese and Parmesan. I have found none better anywhere. Serve with a leafy green salad and crusty garlic bread.

Al kabsa was the first Arabic dish I ever made. It turned out extremely delicious and is a new favorite. Serve with fresh mixed cucumber, carrot, lettuce, and tomato salad — preferably with a little lime vinaigrette. Some fresh pita bread on the side would also be nice. Saudis like their kabsa with a hot sauce called shattah. Enjoy!
