Ingredienser
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup crushed saltine crackers
  • 8 oz mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a loaf pan.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped mushrooms and diced onion until softened and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 6 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, crushed saltine crackers, shredded Swiss cheese, fresh thyme, egg, milk, salt, and pepper. Add the cooled mushroom mixture.
  • Mix everything together with your hands until evenly combined, but avoid overworking the meat.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and press it down evenly.
  • Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

merknader

For the best moisture, do not drain the mushrooms too aggressively after cooking. If you want a stronger thyme flavor, add an extra half teaspoon when mixing. Leftovers reheat well in a covered skillet over low heat with a splash of broth to keep the texture from drying out.
