Seemed like the right weather for a nice warm comfort food meal.
Ground round, a half packet of dry onion soup mix – I like the flavor and it seems to help make the meatloaf very moist, and two raw eggs.
Then some chopped onion and two slices of white bread.
Mixed together by hand and patted into a loaf pan and a drizzle of ketchup
The asparagus looked good in the store on Sunday (just two days ago) but were a little slimy on top tonight so I washed them thoroughly and decided to roast them as the meatloaf cooked.
A lovely pinot noir to go with dinner and to add to the gravy. The asparagus turned out pretty crispy, like little fries, but I think they were ok. Everything else – very comforting and very nice on a cold fall evening.
