Mexican Style Meatloaf
This delicious recipe is from my recipe box, I have had it for years and have no idea where it orginally came from. It sure kicks up a regular meatloaf recipe. 1 small can black beans, drained 1/2 cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped green pepper (I used Hungarian peppers) 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional) 1 tsp salt 1 T ground cumin 2 T chili powder 1/2 t pepper handful tortilla chips, finely crushed (I used Doritoes) 1 egg 3 large garlic cloves, minced 1 pound ground beef 1/2 cup salsa (use your favorite. I used homemade) shredded Mexican style cheese Preheat oven to 375°. Coat large loaf pan with cooking spray. Set aside. Combine beans and next 11 ingredients in a large bowl and stir til just blended. Bake for 50 minutes. Sprinkle cheese over the top and bake 10 more minutes. I served the meatloaf over cheesy garlic mashed potatoes with a dollop of salsa. Variation: Top with sour cream and extra tortilla chips.http://media-files.gather.com/images/d953/d950/d743/d224/d96/f3/full
