Beef Gravy

Method

Meatloaf

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Meat Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Shape and Bake Meatloaf

    Transfer the meat mixture into a loaf pan and shape it into a loaf. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a large pot, add the peeled and cubed potatoes and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 5

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Veg of the Day

  1. 6

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Add mixed vegetables, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Beef Gravy

  1. 7

    Make the Gravy

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden. Gradually whisk in the beef broth, and bring to a simmer. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
