Green Chile Meatloaf

  5.0 – 1 reviews  • Beef Meatloaf Recipes

My sister and I used to enjoy this simple dinner when we were youngsters camping. Years later, I was asked to prepare a meal to bring to my sister’s house for Christmas breakfast. Inspired, I created our camper’s hash. I gave it the nickname “Who-Hash” to make its arrival at Christmas acceptable, and so a tradition was established. We now prepare this Who-hash dish on Christmas morning. The phrase “their last can of Who-hash!” is used to explain how the Grinch stole everything from the Whos’ home in Dr. Seuss’ “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.”

I gave this 5 stars for the inspiration alone, since I didn’t have all the ingredients. Instead of chicken stuffing, I used garlic butter salad croutons. Also did not have jalapeño ketchup, but added jalapeño salt to it. In addition I covered top with 2 slices of bacon and added 1 cup of cubed Colby-Jack cheese and more green chile than indicated. It was moist and delicious. Thanks for the recipe, which is easy to adapt to your individual taste.
