Ingredients

2 tbsp. butter or
margarine
1/2 lb. mushrooms, trimmed and sliced
1 onion, diced
1 cup celery, thinly sliced
1 cup carrots, pared, shredded
2 tbsp. water
2 lbs. ground beef
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. seasoning salt
1 tsp. fines herbes (optional)
2 tbsp. soy sauce or
1/2 cup ketchup

Instructions

Combine butter or margarine, mushrooms, onion, celery, carrots, and water in a medium-size frying pan. Heat to boiling, cover and cook 10 minutes or until vegetables are crispy tender. Combine ground beef, flour, salt, seasoned salt, fines herbes, soy sauce, and cooked vegetable mixture in a large bowl. Mix lightly, until well-blended. Shape into a rectangular loaf (8x6-inch) in a greased jelly-roll pan. Bake in moderate oven (350°F) for 1 hour, or until crusty-brown. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving, if you wish.

Author's Comments

One of the best meatloaves I've ever made. I halved the recipe for the 2 of us but next time I will made it all and freeze 1/2. I used Ketchup instead of soy sauce and left out the fines herbes, I don't have any. I didn't have fresh mushrooms so I used canned. I baked to 160°F on my thermometer and it took 1/2 hour. It was very moist and tasty.
