My Meatloaf

So I know this isn't meatloaf but it sort of disappeared before I

could take a picture of it. It is, however, Monday and I thought,

"hey, "Chuck's" on tonight." So, make meat loaf and watch Chuck.

Ingredients

2 Tablespoons olive oil

1 onion, chopped

1 red bell pepper, finely chopped

2 Tablespoons garlic

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon paprika

2 pounds lean hamburger

1 cup dried bread crumbs

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup half & half

1/2 cup ketchup

1/2 cup brown sugar

dash of cayenne pepper

In a large skillet, heat the oil. When hot, add the

onion, pepper, and garlic. Cook for 7 minutes. Add

paprika, oregano, and salt. Cook another 2 minutes.

Remove from heat.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

combine onion mixture, hamburger, bread crumbs,

eggs, and milk. Mix until well combined. In a

separate bowl mix the ketchup, brown sugar, and

cayenne pepper until smooth. Scoop meat into

muffin cups. Fill only 2/3 full. spread each with the

glaze and bake for about 20 minutes.

I also like to serve this on top of cheesy mashed

potatoes. You just can't beat meat and potatoes!!
