  • Use a food processor: A food processor makes it quick and easy to chop the vegetables and meat for the meatloaf. If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the ingredients by hand, but it will take a little longer.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture: Overmixing the meatloaf mixture can make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Shape the meatloaf into a loaf: Use your hands to shape the meatloaf mixture into a loaf shape. Make sure the loaf is evenly shaped so that it cooks evenly.
  • Bake the meatloaf in a preheated oven: Preheat the oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you put the meatloaf in. This will help the meatloaf cook evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meatloaf: The meatloaf is done cooking when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Insert the meat thermometer into the center of the meatloaf to check the temperature.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: Let the meatloaf rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will help the meatloaf stay moist and juicy.
