Mango Meatloaf with Zip Sauce

A big thanks to Ms. Recipe for her incredible post!

Being a food experimenter has become on of my favorite things to do since I was a little girl. Recently, I was given an oppurtunity to try Zipsauce.  Talk about speedy shipping, I received the Zipsauce within a couple of days. It arrived wrapped in bubble wrap to protect it from breaking. Along with two bottles of zip sauce I received several cards with recipes already made with Zipsauce. I decided to make a meatloaf with the sauce, but not your ordinary meatloaf. At first, I thought the sauce smelled like soy sauce, but once I tried the sauce I was surprised how good it did really tastes.

So on with the recipe…

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour
Servings: 4-6

Ingredients:
2-3 pounds lean ground beef
1/4 cup ZIPSAUCE
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup evaporated milk
1 large egg
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup mango, peeled, chopped
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup plain bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Combine all ingredients into large bowl.
3. Pour into large baking dish/pan and form into loaf.
4. Bake uncovered for 1 hour on bottom rack in the oven.Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:
# 1 Substitute ground chicken or turkey for ground beef.
# 2 Substitute evaporated milk use whole milk.
# 3 Tastes great with mashed potatoes.

Zipsauce sent me 2 bottles of the zipsauce  to try and write a recipe with it.

Dear ZipSauce,

Serving your sauce to my Christmas dinner party of 14 was a hit! I created my own recipe and wanted to share it with any other ZipSauce enthusiasts.

ZipSauce Marinade
1 cup ZipSauce
1 cup Olive Oil
½ cup Water
4 Garlic Cloves

I just blended it all in a blender and marinated my meat in it. I am so in love with ZipSauce I wish I could sell it! Thank you for the free bottle of ZipSauce for my recipe submission, this won’t stay long at our house!
