Vegetable Loaded Crockpot Meatloaf Recipe
I absolutely love slow cooker and crock pot recipes because they free up so much of my time. I just pop everything into the slow cooker in the morning and by dinner time, it’s all set!
This Vegetable Loaded Crockpot Meatloaf Recipe is perfect for those days when I am having friends or a date over for dinner and I really don’t feel like spending a ton of time preparing for a meal…especially since I do not have a dishwasher! Washing dishes by hand?
Slow cooker recipes are perfect for that because there aren’t as many dishes! It is so nice to have just ONE thing to clean up after dinner (besides the plates and utensils, of course). You can even be lazy and throw the slow cooker into the fridge with the leftovers and not have to clean it right away.
How to Make this Vegetable Loaded Crockpot Meatloaf Recipe
Vegetable Loaded Crockpot Meatloaf Ingredients
Blend all together the following:
- 1 small yellow pepper
- about 1.5 cups of fresh tomatoes
- 2 handfuls of fresh spinach
- 4-8 asparagus spears or large green beans
- 1 medium onion
- handful of mushrooms
You will use this liquid all mixed together with the meat. Along with 2-3 cups of bread crumbs, we made ours from scratch by blending day old bread and then toasting the crumbs in the oven until crispy. You can certainly use store bought as well.
Mix all of this together slowly with the following until everything holds together really well and doesn’t seem too wet or too crumbly and dry.
- 1 pound of ground bison
- 1 pound of ground pork
- 1 pound of ground beef
Vegetable Loaded Crockpot Meatloaf Directions
Press into the crockpot so that it is level and smooth. Then use a fork to prick holes all over the top and coat with a layer of barbeque sauce.
Optional, we laid a few thin rings of a whole onion and sliced mushrooms on top.
Cover and cook for about 3-4 four hours (depending on how hot your crockpot runs). The nice thing about a slow cooker is that it will keep all of the fats and liquid around the meat so you wont have to worry about it drying out quickly after the meat has finished cooking.
