  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup ketchup, divided

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Mix the ground beef, onion, green bell pepper, breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup milk, garlic, 1/4 cup ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until evenly combined.
  • Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in the slow cooker. Spread the remaining 1/4 cup ketchup over the top.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6 hours until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
  • While the meatloaf cooks, place the sweet potatoes in a pot of water and boil until soft, about 15 minutes. Drain, then mash with 1 tablespoon butter and 1/4 cup milk until smooth.
  • Steam the green beans in a separate pot or steamer basket for 8 minutes until tender. Toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
  • Slice the meatloaf and serve with the mashed sweet potatoes and green beans on the side.

merknader

Shape the meatloaf on a piece of foil with edges folded up so it lifts out cleanly after cooking. If the mashed sweet potatoes seem thick, add a splash more milk while mashing to reach the texture you like. Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to three days and reheat gently in the microwave with a damp paper towel over the top to keep the meatloaf moist.
