The meatloaf that aspired to be more!
What a day this has been! Well... more of an evening rather. I get home today to a power outage at my apartment, but not the entire complex, it seemed to be isolated to just the row I was in, and the people on the other side of the lake it looked like as well. So while the power was out I prepped what I could for what had started out to be a meatloaf. Due to various variables it is more of a Frittata now then a meatloaf... Regardless! it is yummy, I had two pieces!
So as I run around trying to catch up with my evening I find that I have very little to do around this place that isn't related to electricity or light. Not that I am complaining or anything, I just felt like I was getting behind on everything by not being able to do anything that I had planned on doing. Of course it is just silly since nothing that I needed to do was actually important to do, just part of the nightly routine. Who knew I liked routine. Maybe it is my old age catching up with me!
Anyways on to the meatloaf Frittata recipe!
Meatloaf Frittata (8 servings)
3/4 lb of ground turkey meat
2 cups chopped baby spinach
1 cup finely chopped mushrooms
1 small white onion
1 chicken bullion cube crushed and sprinkled (or if you have powder have at it)
3 eggs
1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 cup cream of mushroom soup
4 slices pepper jack cheese
In a bowl mix everything except the cream of mushroom and pepper jack cheese. You have to get your hands messy with this one to make sure a good mix without shredding everything. Since it started out with less meat then planned, I decided to bake in a 9 inch round cake pan instead of in the loaf pan. I poured the mixture into the pan (sprayed with olive oil for no sticking issues). Half of the can of cream of mushroom I just smudged around the top of the mixture after in the pan. After cooking at 350 for 1 hour, I put the cheese in and baked until melted.
