2 lb Lean ground beef; up to 2
-1/2
1 md Onion; finely chopped
1 c Italian-flavored bread
-crumbs
1 1/2 c Ketchup; divided
2 Eggs
1/2 ts Salt
4 c Warm mashed potatoes
8 Cherry tomatoes; halved
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan with
nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, onion,
bread crumbs, 1 cup ketchup, the eggs, salt, and pepper; mix well. Place in
the prepared pan. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup ketchup over the top of the
meat. Bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear; drain off
any liquid. Allow to sit for 5 minutes, then remove to a serving platter.
“Frost” the meat with the mashed potatoes and garnish the bottom edge with
the cherry tomato halves.
NOTE: Feel free to decorate this “cake” any way like. Sometimes I drizzle
beef gravy over the mashed potato frosting to look like chocolate glaze.
Happy April Fool’s Day!
