Certainly! Adding feta to meatloaf can add a delightful burst of flavor and creaminess. Here’s a simple recipe for a delicious meatloaf with feta:
Ingredients:
1.5 lbs ground beef (or a mix of beef and pork)
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup milk
2 large eggs
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup ketchup (for topping)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese into the meat mixture. Be careful not to overmix to keep the feta chunks intact.
Transfer the meat mixture into a greased or lined loaf pan, shaping it into a loaf shape.
Spread a layer of ketchup on top of the meatloaf for added flavor and moisture.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Once cooked, let the meatloaf rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Serve slices of the meatloaf with your favorite side dishes. Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad can complement the dish well.
Feel free to adjust the seasonings and ingredients according to your taste preferences. Enjoy your flavorful feta-infused meatloaf!
