Leftover meatloaf magic
Got leftover meatloaf or ground beef and don’t know what to do with it?
This is the perfect recipe when you want to eat leftovers, but you don’t want it to taste anything like last night’s dinner.
I am right there with you, I don’t really enjoy leftovers. In order to attract me, leftovers have to be totally transformed!
This recipe is so good that it took a meal I couldn’t even stomach, and transformed it into a delicious meal (I tried to make meatloaf again and FAILED-grrr). Being an ex-vegetarian of almost 15 years, I still have trouble enjoying many meat recipes, but every once in a while, something will be cooked to perfection and I will be pleasantly surprised.
And by the way, this recipe is kid-tested and approved!
You will need:
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 Tbsp ghee, butter or coconut oil
- 1 Tbsp marjoram
- 3 cups leftover meatloaf or ground beef
- 2 cups frozen corn
- 1 cup red wine (or stock if you don’t have)
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 2 Tbsp prepared mustard
- 1 tsp
- 1/2 tsp of pepper
- 1/2 cup creme fraiche
How to make it:
Step 1: Saute chopped onions in butter and marjoram until soft, sweet and fragrant in a large stock pot on med-high heat.
Step 2: Add leftover meat, corn and red wine, stir together and saute at medium heat.
Step 3: Add remaining ingredients (except creme fraiche and chives) and simmer for 40 min.
Step 4: Take off the stove and stir in creme fraiche.
Step 5: Pour into serving dish and sprinkle fresh chives on for garnish.
Serve with mashed potatoes and cultured vegetables on the side.
