Ingredients
- 3 slices Whole Wheat Baguette, Sliced 1-Inch Thick
- 1 whole Medium Onion, Grated
- 1 whole Large Egg
- 1 package Extra Lean Ground Beef (400 Gram Package)
- 3 cloves Garlic, Crushed
- 13 cups Chopped Fresh Parsley, More As Desired (dried Doesn't Work)
- 1 Tablespoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Pepper
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375 F.
- In a large mixing bowl pour some lukewarm water over the bread slices and let the bread soak in the water.
- Just add enough water to cover the bread.
- After the bread has completely softened and absorbed the water, drain the excess water out of the bowl and gently squeeze the excess water out of the bread.
- When you are left with only the soaked bread in the bowl, add all of the remaining ingredients into the bowl.
- Mix well using your clean hands.
- When the meat mixture has come together, pour it into a large casserole dish (I use my 9 x 13 lasagna pan).
- Shape the meat mixture to look like a loaf of bread, trying to keep it uniform in size so it cooks evenly.
- Put the baking dish into the oven.
- Bake for 45 minutes or until the meat is cooked through.
- Serve immediately or at room temperature.
- Notes: 1.
- In a pinch you can use 3 slices of whole wheat toaster bread in place of the baguette.
- 2.
- Yes, exactly 400 grams of meat.
- Just kidding ... anything up to 500 grams works.
- 3.
- If you dont have fresh parsley on hand, just skip it (dried wont work).
- 4.
- Im not a fan of loaf pans because there is nowhere for the fat to go (yes, extra lean meat has fat too).
