Italian style meatloaf

Italian Style freeform meatloaf

1Kg  (2lbs) minced (ground) Beef
1 Onion, finely chopped
1 cup finely grated zucchini    
I cup finely grated carrot     
1 Tbsp crushed Garlic 
 2 eggs, beaten    
1/2 cup breadcrumbs or oats 
1 tsp dried Italian herbs
1 tsp lemon pepper seasoning 
200g (4oz) feta cheese, crumbled - optional   
3 Tbsp tomato paste    
1/4 cup red wine

Place all ingredients except the meat and eggs in a large bowl and mix gently but thoroughly together.  Add extra salt and pepper if needed.  Add eggs and meat and mix again.  Form into an oblong shape and place on a baking paper lined cookie sheet.  Bake at 180*C 350*F for about 1 1/2 hrs.  I always roast some vegetables at the same time to serve alongside, and make full use of the oven.  Roasted mushroom, carrots, and potatoes are nice.
