Ingredients
- 3/4 cup tomato sauce (180 ml)
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar (180 g)
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt
- 1 1/3 pounds grass-fed ground beef (600 g)
- 1 1/3 cups bread crumbs (160 g)
- 1 small yellow onion, chopped (100 g)
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped (120 g)
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil (60 ml)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat a loaf pan with a non-stick spray.
- In a small bowl, mix together tomato sauce, brown sugar, and salt, then let it sit for a few minutes until the sugar dissolves.
- Pour a third of a cup of the sauce into the bottom of the loaf pan and set it aside.
- In a food processor, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, onion, bell pepper, eggs, vegetable oil, and a third of a cup of the sauce mixture, and blend until everything is well mixed.
- Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and even out the surface.
- Spread the remaining sauce over the top of the meatloaf and bake in the oven for about an hour or until the internal temperature reaches 155°F to 160°F (68°C to 71°C).
- Take it out of the oven and let it sit for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Consider using lean ground beef or turkey instead of grass-fed ground beef for a healthier option.
- Add a touch of Worcestershire sauce to the meat mixture for enhanced flavor depth.
- For a sweeter glaze, increase the brown sugar amount in the sauce mixture.
