WHAT'S ON YOUR PLATE TUESDAY!


Onion Mushroom Meatloaf/Sweet Potato Fries/Salad and Raw Baby Carrots


Yes, it was as good as it looks!

Tahini Garlic Salad Dressing
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons flavored vinegar ( I used basil vinegar I made with basil from my garden)
1 teaspoon Honey Dijon Mustard
1/2 teaspoon garlic paste or more to taste
2 teaspoons tahini

Pumpkin seeds (Optional...to sprinkle on top of salad)

Add all ingredients to a bottle and shake well. Toss with your favorite salad ingredients ( I used lettuce, red peppers, tomato, chopped avocado and chopped apple) Spoon onto a plate and sprinkle some pumpkin seeds on top.

Onion Mushroom Meatloaf
1 pound lean hamburger
1 to 1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms (reserve a few to garnish the top)
1 large onion chopped fine
1/2 pepper (I used red)
2 eggs
3/4 cups seasoned bread crumbs
1 package onion soup mix
pepper to taste
3/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix all the ingredients (except cheese and reserved mushrooms) together in a large bowl. After you've mixed it well, spoon into a large loaf pan or an 8x8 inch baking pan. Top with reserved mushrooms. Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle on cheese. Bake another 15 minutes.

Bon Appétit!

  1. Looks so delicious! Would love to participate in Mr. Linky but I still haven't gotten used to photographing my food before I eat it and we've been eating a good bit of take out lately. :(

  2. Mom, I was going to make lamb stew tonight to post for this but when I went to make it I discovered I had forgotten to take the meat out of the freezer! Now I'm not inspired to make anything (home alone anyway) and not really hungry. Next time.
