BACON-WRAPPED MASHED POTATO-STUFFED MEATLOAF RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• In a large bowl, mix together beef, cooked onions and garlic, Parmesan, eggs, panko, salt, pepper, Worcestershire, milk and parsley. Set aside.
• In another bowl, make the glaze by mixing ketchup, brown sugar, mustard powder, onion powder, paprika, and tomato paste. Reserve half of the glaze in a separate bowl for after the meatloaf is cooked. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, mash cooked potatoes, butter, salt, pepper, milk and parmesan to desired consistency. Set aside.
• Line a bundt pan with slices of bacon and use a pastry brush to spread a layer of glaze on the inside of the bacon.
• Add ⅔ of the meat to the bottom of the bundt pan and spread up the sides and up the middle of the pan making a "bowl" for the mashed potatoes.
• Add the mashed potatoes into the "bowl" and smooth out. Top the mashed potatoes with the remaining meat, smooth out, coat the top with the raw meat glaze, and fold the slices of bacon over the top of the meat. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour, remove the foil after 30 minutes and carefully drain some of the fat before putting it back into the oven.
• Place a cooling rack on top of the bundt pan and flip over onto a baking sheet. Remove the bundt pan and coat the meatloaf with the reserved glaze.
• Broil on high for 3-5 minutes or until the glaze has caramelized.
• Enjoy!

MASHED POTATO-STUFFED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• For the mashed potatoes: Poke each potato with a fork several times and microwave until soft, about 15 minutes (or use your microwave?s potato setting). Cool until you are able to handle them with a towel, about 2 minutes. Halve the potatoes and scoop out the flesh with a spoon and discard the skin. Mash the potatoes and butter in a medium bowl until smooth then fold in the sour cream, chives and 1 teaspoon salt until well combined. Set aside.
• For the meatloaf: Toast the bread crumbs in a dry skillet over medium heat until browned and fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside. Add the oil, onions, garlic, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the skillet and cook, stirring, until onions are tender, about 8 minutes. Let cool slightly. Add the onion mixture to the bread crumbs along with the meatloaf mix, Parmesan and Worcestershire sauce. Toss and mix gently. Add the eggs and mix it completely into the meat mixture.
• Transfer 1/2 of the meatloaf mixture to the prepared baking sheet and gently press into a 12- by-3-inch rectangle. Gently create a well down the middle of the meatloaf mixture with a 1/2-inch wall on all four sides. Spoon the mashed potato mixture into the well. Working with a quarter of the remaining meatloaf mixture, gently flatten the mixture with the palms of your hands. Lay the meatloaf mixture over 1/2 of the mashed potatoes. Repeat with the remaining meatloaf mixture ensuring the potatoes are completely enclosed.
• For the glaze: Whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar and vinegar in a small bowl. Spoon the glaze evenly over the entire loaf.
• Bake until an instant read thermometer registers 160 degrees F in the center of the loaf, about 45 minutes.
• While the meatloaf is cooking, cook the peas according to package directions. Toss with the butter and season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Slice and serve the meatloaf with butter, black pepper and the peas.

DAD'S CHEESY BACON WRAPPED MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine ground beef, eggs and 2 tablespoons of ketchup in a large bowl. Mix well, then add bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, oregano, basil, pepper, and onion. Set mixture aside. Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan with bacon, widthwise. Place half of the meat mixture across the top of the bacon. Lay 3 of the 4 pieces of Cheddar cheese across the center of the meat, lengthwise. Cover the cheese with the second half of the meat mixture and mold the meat into a loaf shape. Pull the ends of the bacon up and around the loaf. Spread 1 tablespoon of ketchup thinly over the loaf.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove from the oven.
• Cut the final piece of Cheddar cheese into slices and place on top of the meat loaf. Return the meat loaf to the oven and continue baking until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the meat loaf to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
