Last nite I did what I am calling Maggot meatloaf.
Gotta work on that name.
2 strips of thick, uncooked bacon run through the processor enough to break into chunks.
Add Red and Yellow bell peppers and 1/2 a white onion, about a 3" stack of whole wheat saltines, Garlic and salt and pepper.
Pulse it just enough to break everything down a bit.
Add 1 lb of Elk burger and a shot of olive oil.
Pulse enough to mix well but not make too fine. I stayed away from any binders (eggs) on the theory it would stay lighter.
Make into a loaf and bake 40 min. at 350.
It was and is awesome comfort food. And, you can taste the bacon.
I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.
