1 lbs. ground beef, 21% or leaner (or 1/3 each ground pork, veal and
beef)
2 oz. grated raw onion
2 oz. grated raw potato
2 oz. grated raw carrot
2 oz. V-8 juice
2 oz. applesauce, natural, no sugar added
1 teaspoon fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon fresh thyme
Glaze
41/2 oz. V-8 juice
2 teaspoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons vinegar, cider
2 teaspoons Diabetisweet®
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Mix all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl until
well combined. Shape into the desired shape (loaf, heart, etc.) and place on
a shallow baking pan.
Prepare the glaze by placing the ingredients into a mixing bowl and
stirring them together to form a sauce. Brush the glaze onto the meat
mixture.
Place the meatloaf into the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 1 hour,
basting every fifteen minutes. The loaf is done when it reaches an internal
temperature of 158ºF.
Remove from the oven, brush with any remaining glaze, and let stand for 10
minutes before slicing. Serve hot.
