How Do I Make Meatloaf With Sausage?

Fire up the oven and get ready to create a delicious dish that’ll make your taste buds sing! 

Start by preheating it to 350F. Next, dice up some peppers and onion into tiny pieces before removing mild Italian sausage meat from its casings directly into a large mixing bowl of ground chuck. Pour in eggy goodness plus marinara sauce for extra flavor – yum! 

Crush Ritz crackers with a rolling pin or bottomed pot inside Ziploc bag then pour crumbs over mixture in the big bowl. Get your hands dirty as you combine ingredients together well with thorough stirring motion until all are totally mixed-up scrumptiousness one only dreams about eating at night… 

Time to scoop mix into loaf pan firmly pressing down & popping it on middle shelf so those center point temperatures reach 160 F once 1hr10min – 1 hr 20 min later passes (plus timer’s not set off smoke detector!). 

Grab an oven mitt when the cooking is done ’cause this hot item needs resting time & will still stay warm even after 5 mins fly away too quickly like always does…

What Is A Healthy Serving Of Meatloaf?

Roughly 4 ounces is a good serving size. Although meatloaf is unquestionably delicious, it is not often seen as being nutritious. However, if you reduce it to a serving size of approximately 4 ounces, it comes out to 350 calories, which sounds much more realistic.

What Is A Healthy Substitute For Breadcrumbs In Meatloaf?

Oat Flour or Rolled Oats.

Oats can be used in meat-based recipes as a binder, similar to how ordinary flour is. You might succeed in replacing bread crumbs in meatloaf or meatball recipes with rolled oats or oat flour.
