Method

Meatloaf Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

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

  2. 2

    Mix Meatloaf Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Shape and Wrap with Bacon

    Shape the meat mixture into a loaf and place it in a baking dish. Wrap the bacon strips around the meatloaf, tucking the ends underneath.

    Bake

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

Whipped Potatoes Preparation

  1. 5

    Boil Potatoes

    In a large pot, cover the cubed potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 6

    Mash Potatoes

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

Sautéed Baby Spinach Preparation

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
