Instructions
Prepare the Mummy Meatloaf
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with tin foil.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together all the meatloaf ingredients until evenly combined.
- Equally divide into 6 or 8 portions. Shape them rounded on top with a flat bottom to shape the mummy head. Place on the sheet pan and cover with foil.
- Bake covered for 30 minutes.
- While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce until evenly combined.
- Remove sheet pan from the oven, uncover and brush glaze over the each meatloaf.
- Return the tray uncovered to the oven and bake an additional 15 minutes.
- Slice the thawed puff pastry into thin strips to create the mummy bandages.
- Carefully wrap the strip of puff pastry over each meatloaf to make it look like a mummy face wrapped in bandages.
- Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 160°F.
Prepare the Mashed Boo-tatoes (Potatoes)
- While the meatloaf bakes, prepare the mashed potatoes. Peel and cut the potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Add the potatoes to a large pot with 1 tablespoon salt, and cover with cold water.
- Bring the pot to a boil and cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 15 minutes.
- Drain the pot with the potatoes and put them back in the pot on the stovetop over low heat.
- Add the cream and butter and mash until the potatoes are smooth. Stir in the sour cream. Season to taste with salt.
Serve
- To serve, place a mummy meatloaf on the plate and serve the mashed boo-tatoes on the side.
- Add the mashed potatoes to a piping bag or Ziploc bag with the corner cut off. Squeeze the mashed potatoes onto the plate to create the ghost shape. Add two small pieces of chopped black olive to create the ghost eyes. Enjoy!
