Egg Meatloaf is a comforting dish that combines seasoned ground meat—typically beef, pork, or turkey—with breadcrumbs, eggs, and spices, shaped into a loaf and baked. Its distinctive feature is a hard-boiled egg nestled within the center, adding visual appeal and a rich taste combination. This dish has roots in various culinary traditions; similar recipes appear in European and Latin American cuisines. Nutritionally, Egg Meatloaf can be a good source of protein and essential vitamins, thanks to the meat and eggs. However, its healthiness largely depends on the choice of ingredients. Leaner meat options and whole-grain breadcrumbs can make it lower in fat and higher in fiber. On the flip side, Egg Meatloaf can be high in cholesterol and saturated fats, especially if made with fatty meats or served with rich sauces. It’s a versatile, satisfying choice but should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
