Filipino Inspired Embutido: Beef Meatloaf

Usually, embutido is made with ground pork. I didn't have pork on hand, so I used some good ole' grass fed ground beef. I winged this recipe.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef (get the leanest possible)
• 2 cups of baby carrots
• 2 cups of baby spinach
• 1 green bell pepper
• 1 medium white onion
• 3 XL eggs
• 6 slices of bacon
• Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning

 Preparation

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees
• In a small pot, hard boil 2 eggs (on medium heat, cook until 12 minutes after it starts boiling)
• In your food processor, blend all of your veggies
• Season your ground beef with Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning, to taste
• Mix veggies and beef by hand, add the 3rd egg and mix well
• Pan fry your bacon until crispy, set aside and drain excess grease, dice and mix into veggie/meat mix
• Peel and quarter your hard boiled eggs
• Set out 3 sheets of foil
• Separate veggie/meat mix to make 3 loaves and add 2-3 slices of the hard boiled eggs
• Grab some meat and surround the hard boiled eggs
• Form your loaf into the shape of a cylinder and wrap foil to maintain its shape, twist ends to lock in place
• Repeat for the rest of the loaves
• On a baking sheet, line it with foil and evenly place the loaves
• Bake for 45 minutes
• Let cool
• While it is cooling, cook a couple eggs over easy
• Slice loaves into 1" slices
• Take several slices, place the egg on top and enjoy!
