MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH CROCKPOT MEATLOAF

Melt-In-Your-Mouth Crockpot Meatloaf image

I can't take credit for this recipe. It came from one of my Taste of Home magazine years ago. I can say that it is truly the easiest and best meatloaf EVER! The texture is perfect for sandwiches the next day, and the sauce adds a slight sweetness you don't get from the typical plain ketchup on the top. My picky daughter loves it, which says a LOT She hates finding chunks of onions or peppers in meatloaf and this recipe solves that beautifully. Oh, and it doubles wonderfully if you have a larger crockpot. Use tin foil strips to aid in removal. ENJOY!!

Ingredients

Italian seasoning

Steps:

Mix together ground turkey, breadcrumbs, onion soup mix, eggs, seasonings to taste, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl until combined. Shape it into a loaf in the middle of a large crockpot. Then, wash 5-6 potatoes, prick them with a knife or fork, and wrap them in foil. Place them around the meatloaf. Cook for 8-10 hours on low.

Tips:

Preheat your slow cooker: This will help the meatloaf cook evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pot.
Use a lean ground beef: This will help to reduce the amount of fat in the meatloaf.
Add some vegetables to the meatloaf: This will help to add flavor and moisture to the dish.
Don't overmix the meatloaf: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
Cook the meatloaf on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours: This will ensure that the meatloaf is cooked through.
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving: This will help the meatloaf to hold its shape.
