Meatpile
Today, I decided to add a new section to this blog. Primarily related to my ridiculous misadventures in the kitchen. I tend to make things off the top of my head and just throw anything in there that I feel like. Today's ridiculous invention is:
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Time: 20 minutes prep + 60 minutes baking
Meatpile is a dish that I invented because I didnt have the right pan to make a loaf. I also didnt have any bread to make breadcrumbs, or onions. This is one of my usual heavily substituted dishes!
Ingredients
- 1 package Jennie-o Ground Turkey (extra lean)
- 1 package Jennie-o Breakfast sausage
- 2 eggs
- Small can of tomato paste
- Heinz Tomato Ketchup
- Worcestershire Sauce
- Garlic Powder
- Pepper
- Some flour
Directions
- Set your oven to 350 degrees C
- Grease the bottom of a large baking dish (clearly to large for your meat)
- In a large mixing bowl, add the ground turkey, turkey sausage (squeeze them out of the casings first), tomato paste, garlic powder, pepper, some flour (just a little), 2 eggs (or one for less mushy result)
- Using your hands, mix everything together until it is mixed thoroughly
- Put the pile of meat in the baking dish in whatever shape you like. Average thickness should be 3 - 4 inches
Coat the top of the meatpile in Ketchup and smooth it around the edges (see picture>
- Bake for 60 minutes
- Serve and enjoy!
It actually is not that good. It was kinda mushy. In regular meatloaf, you are supposed to use breadcrumbs. Let me know what you think!
