In the excessive busy-ness of the past 6 months, I didn’t get around to blogging about all the recipes I cooked.  So… it’s time for some flashbacks!  Here’s one of my favorites from the beginning of April.

It’s a pretty straightforward recipe (http://allrecipes.com/recipe/prize-winning-meatloaf/detail.aspx): mix the ingredients, press into a loaf pan, and then cook it for an hour (or until internal temp reaches 160 degrees F).  And that’s it!

Conclusions

So simple, yet it tastes amazing.  Somehow, I never knew you could make meatloaf with oats instead of breadcrumbs.  I think that’s what makes all the difference.  I’ve never been a huge fan of any recipe that involves breadcrumbs (though I suppose my opinion may change if I try a different kind of breadcrumbs).

In any case, I will definitely be cooking this again once I’m permitted to eat oats and ketchup again because this truly is a “prize winning meatloaf.”

Poor neglected blog…. life certainly has taken some unexpected turns over the past few months.  In addition to being much busier than I anticipated, I’ve also been dealing with a myriad of digestive issues since the beginning of April (if not longer). So the last few months have been full of trials, experimentation, and analysis to figure out how to keep myself from getting sick.  Fortunately, I feel like I’ve made some progress.

And despite my lack of blogging lately, I still plan on trying to make my goal of 50 new recipes by the end of the year.  In fact, it’s needed now more than ever… it’s been a struggle to find interesting and nutritious things to eat that fit my ever-changing dietary restrictions.

So stay tuned.  To give you a preview, this blog is going to start featuring things that are gluten free, egg free, corn free, nut free, and dairy free (amongst other things).  And hopefully I’ll be able to make some progress on my goal and fit in another 46 recipes by the end of the year!  I’ll also be blogging about some non-restrictive recipes I cooked awhile back that I never got around to posting.  Huzzah!
