1 Make the Meatloaves
Turn oven on to 400 degrees. Let preheat, at least 10 minutes. Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Spray provided tray with cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine panko and 2 Tbsp. water. Let sit, 1 minute.After 1 minute, add ground beef, seasoning blend, and 1/4 tsp. salt to mixing bowl with panko-water mixture and thoroughly combine. Form into two loaves, about 3" in length.Place loaves in one half of provided tray. Bake uncovered in hot oven, 15 minutes. -
2 Add the Sweet Potatoes
Carefully remove tray from oven. Top meatloaves with 1/3 the BBQ sauce and half the honey (reserve remaining of both for topping).
Stem thyme. Add sweet potatoes to empty side of tray and stir in 1/4 tsp. thyme. Spread into an even layer. Top evenly with onion jam and pecans. -
3 Bake the Meal
Bake again uncovered in hot oven until sweet potatoes are warmed through and meatloaves reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 10-15 minutes.
Carefully remove tray from oven. Top meatloaves with remaining BBQ sauce (using a clean utensil) and remaining honey. Garnish sweet potatoes with crème fraîche. Bon appétit!
