To be prepared with someone special - in the kitchen, in mind, because you are that special someone or with multiple specials someones.
Prevents work-day blues and atrophy of the heart. Encourages heat in the kitchen - preheat oven to 375.
Start by caramelizing white onions with your choice of dark beer (tip: 90-min Dogfish Head)
Let onions cool and add brown mustard
Hand-mix fine salt, course black pepper, chopped mushrooms, fresh parsley, crushed red pepper, bread crumbs, one egg + ground beef
Combine onions/mustard and flavored beef mixture - form into a loaf shape with no holes
Place the loaf of meat in a loaf-shaped baking tin and into oven for 40 mins - all kitchens differ so alter temp and time for best convection - an inserted knife will not lie
Pull out and top with romano cheese and mashed potatos - back in oven for couple mins
My special someone made a tomato sauce to boot -- whole tomatoes cooked down, with lots of garlic and spice
