EASY OLD FASHIONED MEATLOAF
No fancy ingredients here... Not like we need another meatloaf recipe, but I figured I'd should post my Grandma's for people like me who like a quick easy meatloaf without a lot of fuss. Most of the meatloaves I saw here had things I'd never even consider putting in a meatloaf! :) At times I will substitute the onion with approx. 1/4 cup dried onion flakes. I also have substituted the garlic with garlic powder. I've never tried making it with horseradish. (I was a notoriously picky eater as a kid so I don't think Grandma put it in when I came to visit either.) I usually don't bother beating the egg... (Boy do I sound lazy! Don't tell Mom! LOL!) I've only recently started putting ketchup on the top before baking, so I don't think it's necessary to keep the meatloaf moist. Mom used to use her own dried bread crumbs, but I use the plain storebought kind. I haven't been adventurous enough to try any flavored bread crumbs... Make sure lean ground beef is used otherwise the meatloaf can get too greasy and/or bubble over the pan while baking. I also recommend checking the center to make sure it's done. On occasion it has taken over an hour to bake.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and golden brown, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until the tomato paste turns deep red in color, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the onion mixture cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, stir together the panko and milk. Add the ground beef, eggs, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, pepper, and the onion mixture and use your hands to combine. Do not overmix!
- Shape the beef mixture into a 10 x 5-inch loaf on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top and sides with ketchup.
- Bake the meatloaf until the top is browned and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C), about 50 minutes.
- Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a combination of ground beef and ground pork: This will give your meatloaf a more flavorful and moist texture.
- Breadcrumbs: You can use either fresh or dried breadcrumbs. Dried breadcrumbs will absorb more moisture than fresh breadcrumbs, so you may need to add a little more milk or water to your meatloaf mixture if you are using dried breadcrumbs.
- Eggs: Eggs help to bind the meatloaf mixture together and make it more tender.
- Seasonings: Use a variety of seasonings to flavor your meatloaf, such as salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and herbs.
- Sauce: A sauce can add a lot of flavor to your meatloaf. You can use a simple tomato sauce, a barbecue sauce, or even a mushroom sauce.
- Cooking time: The cooking time for your meatloaf will depend on the size of the loaf and the temperature of your oven. A general rule of thumb is to cook your meatloaf for about 1 hour per pound at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and flavorful meatloaf that your family and friends will love. So next time you are looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give meatloaf a try.
