4 Ingredient Meat Loaf

Another quick dinner I throw together and leave to cook. This one is a household favourite, though I don't cook it often. I don't generally measure this one so these are approximate quantities.

4 Ingredient Meatloaf
Serves 4


  • 250-500g mince
  • 500g sausage meat
  • 1 C of breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 -1/2 C of BBQ sauce (you can use tomato but we prefer BBQ)
  1. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl
  2. Place in loaf tin
  3. Bake at 180 deg. C for at least 60 min
  4. Drain off excess liquid before turning out onto a chopping board for slicing

Like I said easy. I generally serve with mashed potatoes and steamed veg

2 month update

So in my 1-month update, I commented that my meds were being put up. One of the side effects of this is sedation, it is meant to get better as time goes on but because we uped the dose again before the sedation wore off I have had nearly 2 months now struggling not to sleep my days away. Over this time I have been doing a lot better at cooking for us most nights but I have fallen back into old habits about what we are eating. So it's time for me to go back to the 10 rules . I have sat down tonight and written up a meal plan for the rest of the month as I was finding it too easy to forget to do the weekly plan and then muddle on through, but when I do this I tend to forget about the greater variety and increasing seafood. I have also decided to theme the nights of the week to make it a bit easier to plan so I have made a vegetarian night so that we eat more plants, a seafood night for similar reasons, a slow cooker night for when I'm out in the afternoon, a new dish night so t

10 Simple Rules

The following is adapted from the happy kitchen but I have rewritten them in a way and order that prioritises the most difficult or hardest to remember for me.  Eat mostly plants: make most meals half plant and of those plants predominately veges Keep an eye on blood sugar levels: Be aware of how food effects your blood sugars and don't forget to eat Get the right balance of protein and use more fish: Decrease meat portions at dinner and rely less on animal meat Vary your diet: this includes vary what grains you are using.

Review: Cacao Chili with corn bread

Image
This cacao chili comes from the comfort food section of the book the happy kitchen . It is a very rich chili with both red wine and chocolate as enriching agents. I know that the idea of putting chocolate in chili seems rather unusual but don't knock it until you try it. This chili had my husband saying his chili, which is famous among our friends, has finally been defeated. With there being 3 adults in our household I had to increase the recipe by a half though I must have over done it as there were leftovers. With this, I made a cornbread that, while still very tasty, I was rather of unhappy how it came out. I will post a recipe after I get the kinks out. All in all a 10 out of 10 meal with room for technical improvement thought the flavors are brilliant.
