Meatloaf With A Crunchy Topping Recipes

MEATLOAF WITH A CRUNCHY TOPPING

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375^. Line a cookie sheet with foil -making a flat surface with the edges turned up so the grease will not seep out..spray lightly.Set aside. Place the Stuffing in a plastic bag and roll coarsely; place them out evenly on a sheet of waxed paper.
• 2. Place the meat in a large bowl and add all the ingredients..except the stuffing crumbs, these make up the crust; mix well- I use plastic gloves or you can use baggies on my hands and mix the heck out of the mixture..
• 3. Form the mixture into a big fat log-or like a big ham. Place it on the crumbs and then turn over to coat the other side and any spots without crumbs. Place loaf on the sprayed foil trough.
• 4. Bake in oven at 375^ for 30 minutes then turn oven down to 350^. Continue baking for another 40 minutes or until center of meat reaches 160^. Remove meat to a serving platter , using 2 egg spatulas.Enjoy! Hope you like it....

CRUSTY MEATLOAF

• Shape the mixture into two loaves. Place them on a rack in a shallow baking pan that will hold them without crowding.
• Mix the bread crumbs with the remaining egg whites and frost the loaves all over with this mixture. Bake about 1 1/2 hours, until the loaves are crusty and brown. Serve at once or allow to cool, then refrigerate. The loaves can be reheated -- whole or sliced -- in a conventional oven or a microwave oven or sliced and used for sandwiches.
