Crusty Meatloaf Using Leftovers

Since Michele is sharing her recipes for leftovers I thought I’d share one of mine too. This meatloaf recipe is one that when I first became gluten free, I took on nearly every picnic we went to as it works well cold. It is also an excellent way of using leftover meat from a roast lamb or beef, though I wouldn’t recommend using corned beef. The crusty texture comes from the cheese batter poured over the loaf.

Meat Pancakes

One of the things I loved as a kid was when Mom made meat pancakes. It is a great way of using up leftover roast meat. It was one of those casual meals we often had for Sunday evening dinner.

Beef and Pasta Bake

This beef and gluten free pasta dish is so simple and yet it tastes great. Our family prefers this to traditional lasagna made with lasagna sheets. Sorry, but because of the cheese content, this is not suitable for those unable to eat dairy products. HINT Any dish that uses ground beef should always include grated carrot or apple. It adds to the flavor. It’s all a matter of taste but in the efforts of cutting down salt intake I rarely add salt to most recipes, especially if using tomato paste. It is usually salty enough. No-one’s ever noticed or complained. … Continue reading →
