  1. 1
    Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Place potatoes in a medium pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, ⏱️ 12 minutes . Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid, then drain and return potatoes to pot. Keep covered off heat until ready to mash in Step 5.
    potatoes: 24 oz

    While potatoes cook, peel and mince or grate garlic . Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges; mince a couple wedges until you have 4 TBSP. Roughly chop parsley . Trim green beans if necessary.
    garlic: 4 clove, onion: 2 unit, parsley: ½ oz, green beans: 12 oz
  3. 3
    In a large bowl , gently combine ground beef , panko breadcrumbs , garlic, warming spice blend , half the minced onion, half the parsley, salt (we used ¾ tsp; 1½ tsp for 4 servings), and black pepper . Form into two 1-inch-tall loaves (four loaves for 4). Place meatloaves on one side of a lightly oiled baking sheet with cooking oil . (For 4, arrange meatloaves across entire sheet.) Bake on top rack for ⏱️ 8 minutes (they'll finish cooking in the next step).

    Once meatloaves have baked 8 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Carefully toss green beans and onion wedges on opposite side of sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. (For 4 servings, leave meatloaves roasting; toss veggies on a second sheet and roast on middle rack.) Return sheet to top rack and roast until meatloaves are cooked through and veggies are tender and browned, ⏱️ 12 minutes more.

    Meanwhile, return pot with drained potatoes to low heat. Mash with sour cream and 4 TBSP butter until smooth and creamy, adding splashes of reserved potato cooking liquid as needed. Season with salt and pepper.
    sour cream: 3 tbsp, butter: 6 tbsp

    Melt 2 TBSP butter in a medium pan over medium heat. Add remaining minced onion; cook, stirring, until softened, ⏱️ 2 minutes . Sprinkle with flour and whisk vigorously to combine. Whisk in chicken stock concentrate and 1½ cups water. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, ⏱️ 3 minutes more. Remove from heat; stir in remaining parsley and season with salt and pepper. TIP: Add an additional splash of water if needed to reach desired consistency.
