Lamb and Chicken Meatloaf

I haven't been writing much here lately, so I thought I'd archive a few recently developed recipes. These are directions for me, so ingredient quantities are pretty rough. Deal with it, and follow your mood for the day. That should help you get things the way you like.

This is a recipe that surprised us (my brother and I) as it was developed during an elimination diet. I was only eating lamb, rice, and chicken, and the second time I made it I had added a few veggies to my diet...


2 lbs lean ground lamb
1 lb lean ground chicken
9 crushed rice cakes (I like the brown rice ones)
1-2 medium shallots finely chopped
2-4 teaspoons rosemary (depending on your taste and gaminess of lamb)
2-4 tablespoons parsley (for appearance)
chopped celery (roughly one cup)
chopped mushroom (roughly one cup)
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350

Mix all together and form into two loafs. I put in a bread pan with a bit of olive oil and rub a little oil on the upper surface. If the meat is not lean this wouldn't be needed.
Bake until internal temperature reaches 165, 50-60 minutes.
