    Hi--
    I made this meatloaf this week and it was great! I had my mother in law and sister in law over for dinner (after visiting my brother in law Mark in the hospital).....They loved it! My mother in law isn't eating much anymore, but she cleaned her plate this time!!
    I used mashed sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes and YUMMY!!!
    Enjoy.

    Shepherd's Pie Meat Loaf

    Meat Loaf:
    2 tsp vegetable oil
    3/4 cup chopped onions (1 medium)
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1/2 tsp dried thyme
    1 lb lean ground beef
    1/2 cup fine, dry bread crumbs
    1/4 cup evaporated skim milk
    3 tbsp catsup
    1 large egg, lightly beaten
    2 tsp each Worcestershire sauce, horseradish
    1 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp each dry mustard, freshly ground black pepper
    1/4-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

    Potato-Vegetable Topping:
    1-1/2 lb potatoes, peeled and halved (about 3 large) PEG’S NOTE: I used sweet potatoes
    1/2 cup low-fat milk, heated until steaming
    1 large egg, lightly beaten
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    pinch nutmeg, preferably freshly grated
    2 medium carrots, peeled diced
    1 small zucchini, diced

    Directions

    Meat Loaf: Heat oven to 350º F. (175º C). In a small skillet, heat oil over
    medium heat. Sautè onions and garlic 2 - 3 minutes, or until softened. Stir in
    thyme and let cool slightly. In a large bowl, combine meat, onion mixture and
    remaining ingredients. Mix well. Pack into a 9x5" loaf pan. Bake for 30
    minutes and pour off any fat.

    Topping: Meanwhile, cook potatoes in lightly salted boiling water until tender.
    Drain, place in a medium bowl and mash. Stir in milk, egg, salt, pepper and
    nutmeg. Blanch carrots and zucchini separately in lightly salted boiling water
    for 30 - 60 seconds.. Drain, refresh with cold water and pat dry. Spoon
    carrots and zucchini over top of meat loaf and spread potato mixture over
    vegetables. Bake 30 - 40 minutes longer, or until the top is golden brown.

    Makes 6 servings.
