FROG MEATLOAF
In a truly inspired moment, an idea came to me ... take our Frog Burger recipe and converting it to a bacon wrapped meatloaf! Can you feel your arteries clogging yet?
Ingredients
1 lb ground pork (or turkey or beef)
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1 red onion
2 cloves garlic
Rosemary - leaves of 3 stems
Thyme - leaves of 4 stems
Sage - leaves of 2 stems
Cider Vinegar - 1 tbsp
Olive oil 1 tbsp
BBQ Sauce
1 lb bacon
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F.  In a food processor combine sage, thyme and remaining rosemary, garlic, 1/2 onion, 1 tbsp cider vinegar and 1 tbsp olive oil.  Puree and add to ground pork and panko.  Mix gently.  Form into a loaf in a baking pan and top with bbq sauce.  Lay the bacon strips over the meatloaf, slightly overlapping the strips until the meatloaf is covered.  Tuck the ends of the bacon under the meatloaf so that it doesn’t curl during cooking.  Bake for 1 hour, remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.

Rice 2 c Sushi Rice 1.5 T Seasoned Rice Vinegar Cook the rice according to the package. While still hot, add the rice vinegar and gently fold to incorporate into the rice. Lay some parchment paper on a jelly roll pan (cookie sheet) and scoop the rice onto the pan. Using a wet spoon, spread out and flatten the rice into an even layer. Cover with two layers of damp paper towel and let cool. I usually make the rice in the morning and let it chill in the fridge till supper.
