Jamie Eason's Monster Meatloaf


Jamie Eason's Monster Meatloaf




Ingredients

1/2 onion chopped
1 bell pepper (I use green) chopped
1 tsp pepper (I use more like 2)
1/2 tsp thyme
1 tsp minced garlic
3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup Bragg's liquid aminos
2 tsp no salt added tomato paste
2 packages of extra lean ground chicken or turkey (I'm guessing beef would work too)
1 cup quick cooking oats (I left these out this week for the carb cycle)
1/3 cup (about) reduced sugar ketchup 


It's really simple to make once you have all the ingredients chopped and ready to go. Just throw it all into a large mixing bowl (except the ketchup) and mix well with your hands. (Jamie recommended cooking the onion and bell pepper and spices before hand, then adding them in once they have cooled, but I like the veggies a little crunchier so I skip this step.) Then place your mixture into a prepared 9 x 13 pyrex dish and evenly spread your ketchup over the top of the mixture. Depending on your oven, bake for 1 to 1.5 hours at 350 degrees.
