That's the basic recipe. From there, you can add as you like - • Herbs and other flavorings; oregano, tarragon, cilantro, extra garlic are all good - Worcestershire or A-1 are both good • Tomato paste - 1 small can makes it very rich • Grated Parmesan cheese also makes it very rich Instead of bread crumbs, you can use - • Crumbled dried white or wheat bread with extra herbs and spices • Crumbled Ritz or saltine crackers (not my favorite) • Panko bread crumbs • Pepperidge Farm Herbed Stuffing Mix Whatever you decide on - mix it all in a big bowl. Mixing with your hands is best. Place in a large loaf pan or a 9X13 pan. If you want, top with this mixture: • 1/4 c. ketchup • 1/4 c. mustard • 2 T. brown sugar Place in a 350 oven and bake for about 45 minutes for 9X13 pan, or 1 hr. for loaf pan. It's done when the edges are golden brown and it's bubbly all across the surface. |
