Tex-Mex Meatloaf
- 2 slices white bread soaked in water
- 2 1/4 pounds ground beef
- 1 red chili deseeded and finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon tomato puree
- 1 egg
- 2 onions medium, peeled, 1 finely diced, 1 thinly sliced
- 15 ounces kidney beans drained and rinsed
- 15 ounces corn
- 1/2 pound cucumber thinly sliced
- 1 head iceberg lettuce cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/2 pound cherry tomatoes halved
- 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1 pinch sugar
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 sprigs fresh flat leaf parsley finely chopped
- salsa
- tortilla chips
- Preheat the oven to 400u0b0F. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Squeeze out the bread and place in a bowl with the ground beef, chili, tomato puree, egg, diced onion, 1/3 of the kidney beans and 1/3 of the corn. Season with salt and black pepper and knead. Form into a loaf shape and place on the baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, covering with aluminum foil if the top is browning too quickly.
- Set aside 1 tbsp each of the remaining beans and corn and mix the rest with the cucumber, lettuce and tomatoes. Place the vinegar in a small bowl and season with salt, black pepper and a pinch of sugar. Gradually whisk in the oil, then toss with the salad.
- Mix the reserved beans and corn with the parsley and spoon over the meatloaf. Serve with the salad, salsa and tortilla chips.
