Housewife Special: Meatloaf

I'm in need to clear out the freezer and I have lots of ground beef, and I am thoroughly sick of pasta dishes. I decided it was time to bust out meatloaf (we don't have it often as I'm not even sure my husband likes it). I like this dish because I can sneak tons of veggies into it. I also like to tweak the seasonings so that it doesn't taste like a block of cow smothered in ketchup. Here is the recipe I made tonight; I served it with mashed potatoes, rolls and salad.

Veggie and Beef Meatloaf
serves 4-5

1 lb ground beef (i use 90% lean)
1 large carrot diced
1/4 cup diced leeks or any kind of onion
1 stalk of celery diced
1/4 cup chopped fresh spinach
1 tbsp minced garlic
1tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp Montreal steak seasoning
3 dashes of worcheshire sauce
2 dashes of hot sauce (i fancy chalula)
1/2 tbsp dried oregano
1 egg
Pre-Heat oven to 375
In a skillet heat the oil and add garlic, carrot, celery and leek
saute until veggies begin to soften
*In a bowl add beef, egg, spinach, nutmeg, steak seasoning, worch sauce, hot sauce and oregano, then toss the veggie mixture from the pan into the bowl and mash and mix well with your hands. When your done put the meat mixture into a loaf pan (i spray Pam on the pan before) and put it in the oven for 45 min.
I detest the thought of putting ketchup on it--I'm much more high brow so I make gravy lol
