Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds lean ground beef I use 80/20
  • 1 C diced onions
  • 1/2 C diced peppers I prefer red, but green, orange, purple or yellow work!
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced small
  • 1 T olive oil
  • 1/3 C grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 C quick oats
  • 1 large egg beaten well
  • 1/2 C ketchup plus additional for top
  • 1.5 T Worchestershire sauce
  • 1.5 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray, and set aside.
  2. In a medium skillet, heat olive oil. Saute onions and peppers until they begin to soften. Add garlic. Saute all until soft.
  3. In a large bowl, add cooked vegetables and all remaining ingredients. Stir together with a fork to combine all ingredients well, being careful to not over-mix.
  4. Press into prepared loaf pan. Top with a moderate layer of ketchup. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 hour or until done, removing the foil for the last 15 minutes. Slice and serve.
