Special Savory Loaves Food

SPECIAL SANDWICH LOAVES

Steps:

• Cut each loaf into 22 slices, leaving slices attached at the bottom (cut off and discard end pieces). Between every other slice of bread, place a piece of turkey and beef, a lettuce leaf, a piece of each kind of cheese, red peppers and pepper rings., In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, garlic and chili powder. To serve, cut completely through the bread between the plain slices. Serve with mayonnaise mixture and submarine dressing.

SAVORY SCOTCH MEAT LOAVES

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the beaten egg, bread crumbs, diced onion, diced green pepper, plus the salt and pepper.
• Add the ground beef or ground pork; mix well.
• Shape equal portions of the meat mixture around each hard boiled egg; completely enclosing the egg.
• Arrange the meat loaves in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish. (If I'm using 90% lean ground beef, I'll lightly grease the baking dish before adding the meat loaves.).
• Bake in a 350º oven for 30 minutes.
• While the meat loaves are baking in the oven, prepare the sauce.
• In a bowl, combine all of the sauce ingredients.
• Once the meat loaves have baked for 30 minutes, remove the baking dish from the oven, and discard any excess fat.
• Pour the sauce over the meat loaves, and return the baking dish to the oven.
• Continue baking the meat loaves in the oven for 15 minutes.
• Once the meat loaves are done baking, remove from baking dish and serve immediately.
• *Note: Sometimes when I'm mixing up the meat loaves, I'll substitute 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup of plain dried bread crumbs for the soft bread crumbs. I have also made the meat loaves using either 85% or 87% ground beef. Also, if desired, you can opt to make 4 meat loaves, by just using 4 large size hard boiled eggs, and shaping a 1/4 of the meat mixture around each hard boiled egg. Arrange the meat loaves in an 8 or 9-inch baking pan, and bake as stated in cooking instructions.
• *Additional Note: Also, I did want to mention, when it comes to preparing the medium hard boiled eggs, I let the eggs come to a boil in a saucepan of water, I then remove the pan from the heat, cover the pan, and let the eggs sit for 9 minutes. Afterwards, I place the eggs in cold water (which I also added ice cubes to it), and let the eggs sit for 15 minutes. I then remove the eggs, peel them, rinse them under cold water, and pat them dry with paper toweling before I proceed to make the meatloaves.
