Veggy Meat Loaf Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

2 medium Carrots
1 medium Celery stalk
1 small Onion
1 cup Beef broth
1/4 cup Bread crumbs
1 tbsp Parsley
1 medium Egg, beaten
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper
1 lb Ground lean beef

Recipe Instructions:

Place carrots, celery and onion in the container of a food processor or
blender; process with on/off action until finely chopped (or shred by
hand). Combine vegetables and 1/2 cup broth in a frypan. Stir-cook over
medium heat seven minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp. Combine in a
mixing bowl the remaining broth with bread crumbs, parsley, egg, salt and
papper, add braised vegetables and ground beef; mix thoroughly. Form into a
firm loaf (2 inches thick). Place in a shallow baking dish large enough for
juices to drain away from meat loaf. Bake in 350 degree oven 50 minutes
until meat is no longer pink. Remove from oven and immediately place on a
warm serving platter so fat will not be absorbed.
