Mexican Meatloaf Recipe

This is one of my husband’s favorite recipes I have created. I typically use an all beef mixture. You can use the normal beef/pork/veal mixture or any combination. Just a warning – if you use the all beef mixture it will be heavy and dense! We like this version occasionally but others might not like how heavy and thick it is. This is a personal preference. Please choose your meat accordingly.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 lb beef (or any meatloaf combo you like)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 bag of shredded Mexican cheese
  • 1 can (rinsed) black beans
  • 1 taco season package

Stuffed Breakfast Rolls

Stuffed Breakfast Rolls

Breakfast for dinner, anyone?!

First, scramble your eggs LEAVING 1 to 2 tablespoons of raw egg for later.

Cook your breakfast sausages (I prefer stove top over microwaving).

Now break your cheese slices in half.
Unroll the can of crescent rolls and separate (they are triangle shaped).
Lay the cheese on the roll. Place 1 sausage and 1 tablespoon (or more) of egg on roll. Roll up as if making a regular roll. Pull sides to make ‘larger’ and pull over to cover the ends. Doing this will keep the stuffing in.

wrapped

Once stuffed and sealed turn over to help seal them during the cooking process.
Now take that left over raw egg and brush the tops of your rolls.
After they are glazed with the raw egg sprinkle with salt (I used Pink Himalayan).

Bake at 375 degrees for 15-18 minutes.

Enjoy!!
