  • Instant read thermometer

Ingredients

Green Chile Meatloaf Ingredients

  • 2 lbs ground beef thawed
  • 1/2 yellow onion diced
  • 1 cup roasted green chile chopped or pureed
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup optional
  • 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tsp kosher salt (if using table salt, use half as much)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp smoked chipotle or chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Glaze Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup tomato sauce
  • 4 tbsp maple syrup can skip or reduce to 2 tbsp
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp smoked chipotle or chili powder

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place all of the meatloaf ingredients into a large bowl. Stir to combine. Tip: It's easier to use your hands.
  • Transfer the meat mixture to your baking dish and bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes.
  • While the meatloaf is baking, combine the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan.
  • Set over medium low heat and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
  • At the 40-minute mark, remove the meatloaf from the oven and pour the glaze over top.
  • Return the pan to the oven and continue baking for another 15-20 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer shows an internal temperature of 160 degrees F. The baking time may vary depending on the type of pan you use.
  • Remove the meatloaf from the oven and allow it to rest for 20-25 minutes before serving. This helps to keep the meatloaf from falling apart.
  • Cut into slices and enjoy!

Notes

Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
