Ingredients
Serves 4
- 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/3 cup vegetable juice cocktail
- 1/3 cup ketchup
- 2 teaspooons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

Lightly spray a grill rack with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat grill to low heat.

Combine the bread crumbs, vegetable juice, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, egg, garlic salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the beef and onion. Mix well.

Divide and shape the mixture into 4 individual loaves. Place the loaves on the grill rack. Grill until browned, about 5 minutes.

grandma's Secret tip
Instead of marinara sauce, Grandma sometimes topped the meat loaves with sliced onions and mushrooms that she cooked in a grill basket alongside the loaves.
Serving Suggestion
Serving Suggestion
Serve mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli with the meat loaves. Cherry pie makes a tart contrast for dessert.
