Italian Meatloaf
with Roasted Green Beans, and Mashed Potatoes
Spiked with shreds of aromatic basil, these mini meatloaves are what happens when an American classic spends a semester abroad in Rome. Their piccolo size doesn’t just make them adorable, it allows them to cook quickly, too. Even the mashed potatoes on the side, fragrant with garlic, sneak in a little European flair.
Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Instructions
Wash and dry all produce. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Halve, peel, and mince shallot. Mince or grate garlic. Pick basil leaves from stems; discard stems. Finely chop leaves. Trim any tough ends from green beans.
Soak bread with stock concentrates and ¼ cup water in a medium bowl. Break up with hands until pasty. Add beef, shallot, basil, half the garlic, and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Mix with hands until combined. Form into four 1-inch-thick loaves and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake in oven until cooked through, 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, peel and dice potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Place potatoes and a large pinch of salt in a medium pot. Add enough water to cover by 1 inch, then bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until potatoes are easily pierced by a knife, about 12 minutes. Drain.
Toss green beans with a large drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on another baking sheet. Roast in oven until green beans are tender, about 15 minutes.
In pot used for potatoes, heat 2 TBSP butter and remaining garlic. Melt and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add potatoes and sour cream. Mash with a fork or potato masher until very smooth. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: Add a splash of milk for extra creaminess.
Divide mashed potatoes between plates. Top with green beans and meatloaves and serve.
