Tips:

Use a combination of ground beef and pork for a moist and flavorful meatloaf. Ground chuck and ground pork are two common choices, but you can also use ground turkey or lamb.
Add plenty of seasonings to the meatloaf mixture. This will help to give it flavor and depth. Some common seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Use a loaf pan that is just big enough to fit the meatloaf mixture. This will help to prevent the meatloaf from shrinking too much during cooking.
Bake the meatloaf at a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the meatloaf from falling apart.

Amish meatloaf is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a family meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its simple ingredients and flavorful seasonings, Amish meatloaf is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
