Country Beef Loaf

Directions

Combine butter or margarine, mushrooms, onion, celery, carrots, and water in a medium-size frying pan.

Heat to boiling, cover and cook 10 minutes or until vegetables are crispy tender.

Combine ground beef, flour, salt, seasoned salt, fines herbes, soy sauce, and cooked vegetable mixture in a large bowl.

Mix lightly, until well-blended.

Shape into a rectangular loaf, 8 X 6, in a greased jelly-roll pan.

Bake in moderate over (350℉/180℃) for 1 hour, or until crusty-brown.

Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving, if you wish.
