After a hiatus from my blog (pure laziness + vacation) I decided I'd better get busy and let you know I'm still here, testing recipes. (Since we "spoke" I've completed 16 years of writing the "7-Day Menu Planner" which is about 5840 dinners. Sometimes, I'd rather eat out!)
Last night I tried Nutty Meatloaf from a new book, " The Essential Guide to Healthy Healing Foods" by Victoria Retelny, RD, LDN with JoAnn Milivojevic. The recipes are simple and the two I've tried have been worth the effort. The book is packed with sound nutrition information and a generous number of recipes. We both enjoyed this meatloaf last night (you could use very lean beef). I upped the fresh basil and the walnuts, knowing we like both falvors and I had fresh basil on hand. (When fresh herbs are not so available as they are now (August), I'd use dried to save money.) For me, it's hard to resist any meatloaf and meatloaf demands mashed potatoes, my favorite potatoes (next to French fries). It was one side dish. Fresh zucchini is always easy, as is a mixed green salad so, I added both along side. It was a good meal and easy, too.
The recipe will appear in my column, the week of October 16, 2011.
