Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine meat, bread crumbs, onion, ketchup, eggs, and onion soup mix.
- Use your hands to squish all of the ingredients together until all of the ingredients are well combined.
- Form the meat mixture into two "loaves." At this point, I usually wrap one of the loaves in press and seal freezer wrap and toss it in the freezer. However, if you have a larger family, you'll probably want to cook both.
- Put the two loaves in a 13x9 baking pan and bake for 45 minutes.
- While the loaves are baking, mix up the sauce by stirring the ketchup, the brown sugar, and the mustard together until smooth. Set aside.
- After 45 minutes, take the meat loaves out and spread the sauce over the tops.
- Placed the sauced loaves back in the oven and bake for another 15 minutes or until cooked through.
- Let the meat loaves cool for 5 - 10 minutes before cutting them.
- Enjoy!
- P.S. To cook a frozen meatloaf, take the frozen meat loaf out the day before you want to cook it and let it thaw in the refrigerator. Cook as stated above.
- P.S.S. This meatloaf pairs wonderfully with my super yummy corn casserole!

EASY (AND TASTY) MEATLOAF
This is the meatloaf recipe my family has used my whole life. I love it! Of course, we have to double to whole recipe, using 2 to 3 pounds ground beef, the whole package of onion soup mix, and a 12 fluid ounce can of Carnation evaporated milk. This is good with baked potatoes and some Bush's baked beans. (or any other vegetables: corn, peas...) I hope you like it!

- For a moist and flavorful meatloaf, use a combination of ground beef and ground pork. The pork adds fat, which helps to keep the meatloaf moist during cooking.
- Add some bread crumbs, eggs, and milk to the meatloaf mixture. This will help to bind the ingredients together and make the meatloaf more tender.
- Season the meatloaf mixture with your favorite herbs and spices. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
- Form the meatloaf mixture into a loaf shape and place it in a baking dish. Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about an 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 the juices to redistribute throughout the meatloaf.
