I found this meatloaf recipe while browsing through foodgawker. The pictures look so good that I saved the recipe so I could try it. I haven't yet, but here it is:

My Grandfather’s Meatloaf

the loaf:
2 lb ground beef
1 stick of celery
1 onion
2 cloves of garlic
2 eggs
2 cups breadcrumbs
1 16 oz can of tomato sauce

the sauce:
2 tbsp dijon mustard
1 tbsp soy sauce (packets left over from Chinese takeout work great:
use 2 packets)
3 tbsp sugar

Preheat the oven to 325F.

Chop the celery, onion, and garlic. The finer you chop, the more heterogeneous your meatloaf will be. You may beat the eggs before adding them to the mix, but I don’t. Combine the beef, celery, onion, garlic, eggs, breadcrumbs, and *half* the can of tomato sauce. I use my hands to squish everything together.
When fully mixed, place in a shallow bread tray (my grandfather used,and I still use a 13 x 9 casserole dish, having never personally witnessed a “shallow bread tray,” but I pass the term along in case you foodies have one or know where to find one). Create a channel along the sides to drain the grease.

Mix the mustard, soy sauce, sugar, and the rest of the tomato sauce in a small saucepan and heat gently. Pour half of the heated mixture over the loaf. Bake the loaf covered for 45 minutes. Take the loaf out, drain the grease. Add the rest of the sauce to the loaf and bake uncovered for 30 more minutes. Drain the
grease again. Allow the loaf to stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Omnomicon makes » rrr: meatloaf winner!

If you haven't seen foodgawker before, it's really fun and has beautiful pictures to go with the recipes.

Love foodgawker. I'm inspired to try my hand at potstickers. But first I'll make this. I know the kids will love it.

Granola
- adapted from an Alton Brown recipe - Food Network - Easy Recipes, Healthy Eating Ideas and Chef Recipe Videos : Food Network
Makes 6 servings.

3 cups rolled oats
1 cup sliced almonds
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup shredded sweet coconut
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 to 2 cups dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, cherries, blueberries, etc.)

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine the oats, nuts, coconut, cinnamon and brown sugar.

In a separate bowl, combine maple syrup, oil, and salt. Combine both mixtures and pour onto 2 sheet pans. Cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to achieve an even color.

Remove from oven and transfer into a large bowl. Add dried fruit and mix until evenly distributed.

Does anyone have a good recipe for pea soup? I am in the process of baking a big ham right now and I wanted to use some of it in a soup. It is a bone in so I was planning on making a soup involving the left over bone too. I have a few potatoe recipes but no pea ones.

You know the recipe on the back of the split pea bag is pretty good and it usually comes with a flavor packet, if not just use chicken bouillon.

Here is a recipe from the old thread, I thought I would bring it over because I made it tonight and forgot how good it is. I had some fresh zucchini and squash from the farmer's market. This is super easy and good for a summer meal.
