Dutch Meat Loaf

Modified from Spice and Spirit

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 cup spicey bread crumbs
barbeque sauce
2 eggs
1/4 cup water (I use less)

(I often double the recipe and use one pack of ground beef and one pack of ground turkey)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl combine all of the above.  Mix and put in meat loaf tin (spray tin first).

Cook for 75 minutes.

Meatballs in Sweet and Sour Sauce

Modified from Spice and Spirit

1 pound ground beef
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup spicey bread crumbs

Sauce
1 cup jellied cranberry sauce (I use a can of jellied cranberry sauce)
3/4 cup ketchup (I don't measure, just put a lot)
2 tsps lemon juice (I don't measure, just put a little)

First make the sauce:
In a saucepan, combine cranberry sauce, ketchup, and lemon juice
Cook over law flame around 20 minutes.   Stir.

Meatballs:
Combine ground beef, eggs, bread crumbs.  Form into small balls.

Add Meatballs into sauce.  Simmer for 1 hour.  (Stir every once in a while to make sure meatballs get cooked on all sides)
