Meatloaf

Mashed Potatoes

Green Bean Casserole

Method

Meatloaf

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, chopped onion, egg, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything until well combined.

  2. 2

    Shape the Meatloaf

    Transfer the meat mixture into a loaf pan, pressing it down lightly to form an even shape.

  3. 3

    Bake the Meatloaf

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 4

    Boil the Potatoes

    In a large pot, add the peeled and cubed potatoes. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

  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.

Green Bean Casserole

  1. 6

    Prepare the Casserole

    In a mixing bowl, combine the trimmed green beans, cream of mushroom soup, milk, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.

  2. 7

    Assemble and Bake

    Pour the green bean mixture into a baking dish. Top with French fried onions. Bake in the oven (same temperature as meatloaf) for about 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden.
