Method

Meatloaf

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture

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

  3. 3

    Shape the Meatloaf

    Transfer the mixture to a loaf pan or shape into a loaf and place it on a lined baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Bake the Meatloaf

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).

  5. 5

    Let Rest

    Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 6

    Boil the Potatoes

    Place cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 7

    Drain and Mash

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

Green Beans

  1. 8

    Prepare the Green Beans

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add trimmed green beans and sauté for 5 minutes.

  2. 9

    Add Garlic and Seasonings

    Add minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the beans are tender but still crisp.
