Mexican Meatloaf
We are always looking for a recipe that is easy, different, and that the family will eat. After all, if your idea of supper always revolves around what flavor of Hamburger Helper you are going to serve, I am posting this for you. This is a really easy recipe. You can throw this together in 10 minutes, and put it in the oven. Really, you can.
In a big assed bowl mix 2 lbs of ground beef, 1 cup of Tortilla Soup in a jar, 1 can of drained black beans, 3 eggs, and 2 cups of smashed up tortilla chips. Just use your hands......it's easier.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Now grab enough meatloaf to form a very large ball. Pat it, and squeeze it to form a mini meatloaf. About the size of your husbands brain. (only kidding) Put it in a roasting pan, and make about 5 more just like it. Put them all in the same roasting pan. You make a bunch of smaller ones so that they cook quicker. Bake them for about 30 minutes. Pull it out of the oven and dump the rest of your Tortilla Soup on them, and top them off with grated Monterrey Jack cheese. The Tortilla Soup makes the gravy. Stick them back in the oven for 10-15 minutes.
You get all of your spices in the soup. Even those that don't like traditional meatloaf will love this. How many folks do you know that will stick their nose up at a Mexican dinner?
Make some mashed potatoes to go with. And a margarita or four for Mommy.
Ole'~ !!!!
