delicious mexican flavors they're gonna eat this one you watch and see okay y'all ready for this easy dinner idea let's go ahead and put this one together okay we're gonna start with a large bowl i've got two pounds of ground beef just broken up into the bowl i'm going to place half of an onion we're just going to dice it up i'm just going to dice it small i'm going to add this to our ground beef [Music] now if you don't want to add diced onion you can add some onion powder or minced onion that comes out of a jar just a couple of tablespoons of the minced onion or you can put in like a couple of teaspoons of the onion powder okay now what we're going to do is start adding those flavors that give it that mexican flair so what i have is one 10 ounce can of rotel tomatoes now what that means is there's green chilies inside of the tomatoes here now i drained the juice out somewhat because we don't want to make it too wet in there so we're going to go ahead and add that now if you have diced tomatoes in your pantry and then you have a can a small can of diced green chilies you can put those in here just drain some of the juice out all right i love corn in my mexican dishes so i'm gonna go ahead and add some corn i just drained the can here this is let's see 11 ounces i'm gonna put about half of that into the dish here okay next we're going to add some taco seasoning i have three tablespoons of my homemade taco seasoning that i'm going to add now you can either do that or you can add one packet of taco seasoning that you get from your store whatever flavor or brand that you like i tend to make mine in a big jar like this and just keep it on hand well i'm almost out so i'm gonna have to make some new here if you want my recipe for homemade taco seasoning that will give you a lot of batches then i will link it down below in the description box or you can find it on my website catherinesplates.com just type in homemade taco seasoning now i am using a mild flavor of rotel i've got some cheese here i'm going to be using some mexican style cheese it's a blend of monterey jack cheese cheddar cheese queso quesadilla and acidero cheese i'm going to be putting in one cup [Applause] all right we're going to go ahead now and add two eggs this will be the binder that will hold this all together i still have one more ingredient to show you that's going to go in this you're going to be surprised there we go all right let me show you that next ingredient corn tortilla chips when you open up a bag of those they just smell so good and they're like this kind of like a triangle crispy salty goodness now we're going to use this instead of bread crumbs or panko crumbs like that so what i'm going to do is just put it in a ziploc bag we want to make about one and a half cups of crushed tortilla chips [Applause] about two handfuls we'll go with that and start with that [Applause] just close the bag now we're going to rough crush these okay we don't want to crush them down into tiny little crumbs okay we want to still have a little texture inside of that meatloaf [Applause] this is the ones that i use right here so let me know down in the description box which corn tortillas you like [Applause] all right so i have them in my bag i'm crushing them [Applause] okay that looks really good right here we'll flatten these out for you to see just take my measuring cup and see how much we have here [Applause] just a little over one and a half cups this is a two cup so we're going to use this right here i'm going to pour this into our mixture all right we're going to dive into this and get this all mixed up in the meantime what i have ready before i do that is a sheet pan with a nice lip to it and i've lined it with some parchment paper i'm going to free form the meatloaf once i get it all mixed together because it's pretty big it's got a lot of stuff going on in there and it's not going to fit in my regular meatloaf pan so you can either use two meatloaf pans or you can free form it which i like to do so i'm gonna get my gloves on here and then we're gonna start mixing up our mexican meatloaf [Applause] now those tortilla chips are going to absorb the liquid in this meatloaf and it's going to make it nice and moist oh it smells good the flavors smell really good in here make sure you mix it up really well get down to the bottom push the ground beef through to all the ingredients so we're going to form it as if we were putting it in a meatloaf pan just a couple of inches tall maybe one and a half inches tall to two inches because you want to cook it all the way through and then just kind of pack it tight that way it doesn't fall apart in the oven that's it right there now it's very important that you use a pan if you're free-forming that has a lip on it all the way around that will keep any of the grease from the meatloaf from going down into your oven and it'll keep it in your pan so just make sure you do that okay we're ready to place this inner oven that's been preheating at 350 degrees i'm gonna place it in there for about one hour i'm gonna pull it out i'm gonna place some extra cheese on top place it back in the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes until this is cooked through you can use a thermometer you can even just kind of cut and peek peek at it make sure it's not pink on the inside all right make

back when the meatloaf is done there it is pulled it out of the oven i had put cheese on top of it put it back in the oven for about 10 minutes to get nice and golden on the top and melty added a little bit of green to the top now you can add cilantro for the more mexican flair or if you don't like cilantro just put a little bit of parsley who's gonna know my husband's on the other side of the counter right now excited for this one because you guys know he loves his meatloaf and he loves it on a sandwich yeah it might be a tortilla on this one all right so i had let it rest in the pan for about 10 minutes and then i moved it onto a serving platter so what we're going to do is cut in i'm gonna part for you oh look at that let's go in for another piece here oh that's so good yeah he's
