8/24/2012

 
Hey Rocky, Watch me pull a meatloaf out of my hat!












Picture
Yikes! that's not a meatloaf!!!






This is a meatloaf!






Picture
Yes? Am I right? Am I right? Huh!!


Yup, that is Meatloaf from his band.


Pictureultimate-wallpaper.com
Probably singing one of my sister JoJo's favorite songs,

"You took the words right out of my mouth..."





Which leads me to remember that my sister is going to a concert this weekend to see another Old school band...








Picture




Cheap Trick!!!!

AND she'll be hearing them play one of my all time favorite songs....SURRENDER!!!!!!


Tim and I actually saw them in concert back in the late 70's or early 80's.
*cue lots of screaming, yelling, whistling, Angie up on Tim's shoulders, Tim without a shirt on, Angie being 20 lbs less (SHUT UP!!!!!!!!) sweaty people everywhere, Angie feeling like she'll get crushed but a least she can see the stage..................











Earth to Angie........


WAKE UP!
SNAP OUT OF IT!



Oh anyway, in honor of my sister who completed six weeks of boot camp today with crazeeee results (go JoJo, it's your birthday, gonna party, like it's your birthday), here's the Cheap Trick video from their gig in Budokan.





All righty then,
I actually have  a topic for today's post and I will tell you

Actually this picture is supposed to be a heart but as I was scrolling through my downloads, this caught my eye better
cuz

Maurice (pronounced Morris) over on the right is my favorite.  Shut up.


Sometime Ima do a whole month's worth of blog posts on the Bee Gees.

Ingredients
  • Olive oil, for greasing pan
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
  • 1 pound 99-percent fat-free ground turkey
  • 1/4 cup whole-wheat breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup 1-percent milk
  • 2 ounces Swiss cheese
  • 3 slices turkey bacon, roughly chopped
  • 3 slices whole-wheat bread, torn
  • 1 large egg white
  • 2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • One 8-ounce package mushrooms, coarsely chopped
  • 1 onion, finely chopped1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 small zucchini, shredded
Directions Directions Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with olive oil.

Combine the ketchup and mustard in a small bowl and set aside. Mix together the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, milk, cheese, turkey bacon, bread and egg white in a large bowl.


Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, onions, garlic and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are very tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the zucchini until softened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.


Toss the vegetables and ground meat together gently to combine, and then stir in most of the ketchup and mustard. Shape the meatloaf into the pan and spread the remaining ketchup and mustard on top. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 160 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing into 8 pieces.





Okay guys and gals, that's all I got for now!!! 
You really should try this Turkey Meatloaf just once.
One of the loaves I made WITHOUT mushrooms cuz of Tim and that was okay too but I much preferred the loaf with the mushrooms!

Have a good Friday guys and we'll talk at ya soon!
