MrsM1111 · August 2013

M- meatloaf (freezer meal)
T- tacos
W- "goulash" it's what I grew up calling it but have learned that its not what it is..
T- mushroom alfredo
F- spaghetti
S- BBQ at in laws
S - steak and potatoes

My mom's Meatloaf (made into mini loaf pans and frozen)

1-1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
1 egg
1/2 diced onion
1/2 -1 cup Italian bread crumbs
Garlic salt
Pepper
Italian seasoning
2 8oz cans tomato sauce

Mix everything, except the tomato sauce, well with your hands. Add 1/2 can sauce to meat and mix well. Turn into a loaf pan and push a "well" around the sides and on the top (for drainage and even cooking).

Bake at 350 for 1-1 1/2 hours, suctioning out any grease about half way through. Pour other can and half over meatloaf and sprinkle with a bit more garlic salt and pepper.

Use low end of ingredients and time if using just 1 lb of hamburger.

No PCS thank goodness. Although, I'd go back to Hawaii in a heartbeat! We're just moving on base. The housing waitlist was 18 - 24 months, so we were surprised to get the call after just 7 months. Even though we love our current neighborhood, we're having lots of problems here, so we're taking the base house. No more commute for H! Yay!
