% Daily Values based on a 2,000 calorie diet

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil (you can use vegetable or other cooking oil) The reason I’m going to use two different fats here while I’m cooking off my vegetables is so that we have a nice rich flavor from the butter and we have the volume from the oil that we need to actually cook them through

Step 3

Add 3 to 5 cloves of garlic depending on how strong you want the flavor – should be diced up without the skin.

Step 4

Add 1/3 to 1/2 of an diced onion

Step 5

Let the garlic and onion simmer and sweat to get all that great flavor

Step 6

Add one teaspoon of salt to the garlic and onion to help with the sweating.

Step 7

Cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 8

In a bowl, add 4-5 tablespoons of any style bread crumbs.

Step 9

Then add 4-5 tablespoons of milk.

Step 10

Mix it well and let sit to absorb the liquid it takes about 10 minutes

Step 11

In a separate bowl add your ground beef.

Step 12

Seasoning your Meat Mixture.

Step 13

Add 2-3 teaspoons of salt.

Step 14

Add 1-2 tablespoons of Worcestershire Sauce.

Step 15

Add the cooled garlic and onion mix.

Step 16

Add an egg.

Step 17

Add the parade mixture.

Step 18

Mix with a fork so you don't overmix.

Step 19

Divide the mixture into 2 equal portions.

Step 20

Gently form each portion into a loaf shape, you don’t want a hard-packed snow ball situation.

Step 21

Place on a baking sheet/pan lined with aluminum foil – make sure you use cooking spray or butter/oil to grease your foil.

Step 22

Bake in a preheated toaster oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through. If you used more than 400 grams and your meatloaf are thick you will need to cook them at a lower temperature for longer.

Step 23

To Caramelize Increase the toaster oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce is nicely caramelized.

Step 24

Remove from the oven and let the meatloaves rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
