Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe.

Servings: Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 1-1/2 lb ground sirloin or ground beef (your choice)
• 1/2 cup of bread crumbs
• 1 ½ Tbl of meat rub. Choose your favorite. I used Cajun.
• 1 tsp of ground cumin (optional. This gives a smokier flavor)
• 1 egg
• ½  cup of tomato sauce + 1/4 cup (buy the 8 oz can)
• 1 ½ Tbl of tomato paste
• ½ cup of poblano pepper dices (or green pepper if you don’t like poblanos)
• ½ cup diced onion
• 1 cup of shredded cheddar + a little more for the top

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine the beef, bread crumbs, meat rub, cumin, egg, 1/2 cup of tomato sauce, tomato paste, pepper bits, diced onion and 1 cup of cheddar chees.

Mix. I use my hands and just get it all mixed up.

Put in your loaf pan. Press down lightly. I press a bit more on the sides so it mounds on the top.

Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. At the 1 hour point remove the meatloaf and pour on the remaining tomato sauce. Put back in the oven for 15 more minutes. Then remove and sprinkle on the last of the cheddar cheese.

Let sit for a few minutes and serve slices.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
