Meatloaf Patties Smashed Potatoes And Pan Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, chili sauce, egg, salt, and freshly ground black pepper; mix well. Shape into an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
• Place loaf pan on a rack in an oven-roasting pan. Bake for 1 hour, or until done. Cook until internal temperature measures 160 degrees F (70 degrees C); the meat should be well done, with no trace of pink. Remove from oven, and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
• While the meatloaf is resting, prepare the gravy. In a medium saucepan, melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onions; cook and stir until tender. Add beef broth; simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Combine water and cornstarch in a small cup; stir into broth. Cook and stir for 1 minute, or until thickened.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot with salted water to cover. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until tender all the way through, about 10 minutes. Drain.
• Combine the butter, heavy cream and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in the same pot you cooked the potatoes in and melt over low heat. Use a masher to puree the potatoes right back into the pot while still hot. Stir in the sour cream. Add large handfuls of cheese and stir and fold the potatoes over themselves until the cheese melts, then add another handful. If it gets too thick and hard to stir before you've added all the cheese, add a few tablespoons of additional cream. Season with salt and pepper. Serve and add the Gravy on top.
• Heat the drippings in a small saucepan (or the meatloaf pan) over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth. Cook and stir until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the thyme. Whisk in the beef stock until smooth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and stir in the Worcestershire. Simmer until thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Coat a bread pan 5 by 9 inches with cooking spray and set it aside.
• In a food processor, briefly pulse 6 cups of cocoa-flavored crisp rice cereal.
• Tear or cut 2 rolls each of red and green fruit leather into small pieces.
• Chop 1/2 cup of dried pineapple into small chunks.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over low heat.
• Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder and stir until mixed.
• Add a 10-ounce package of regular-size marshmallows and stir until they're completely melted.
• Add the cereal, fruit leather, and pineapple pieces to the marshmallow mixture.
• Stir quickly with a rubber spatula coated with cooking spray until well mixed.
• If the mixture gets too sticky to stir, place it in a large bowl, coat your hands with butter, and mix it with your hands.
• Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
• Let the loaf cool (about 30 minutes), then remove it from the pan, slice with a serrated knife, and set a serving of 2 slices on each plate.
• Next to that scoop about a 1/2 cup of ice cream in a mound to look like mashed potatoes.
• Top it all with a drizzle of caramel sauce for gravy.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine egg, milk, onion, chili powder, salt and Worcestershire sauce. Mix in 1/2 cup cracker crumbs. Add beef; mix well. Shape into six patties, about 1/2 in. thick. Coat with remaining crumbs. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook patties in oil for 5 minutes on each side or until meat is no longer pink. Serve with ketchup.
