YUMMY MEATLOAF



Yummy Meatloaf image

What makes this meatloaf so good is how you cook it! It's very important to cook this in a baking dish rather than a loaf pan. The grease will drain from the meatloaf this way, and it will be firmer and taste better.

Provided by Cat Loving Cook

Categories     Meat

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 meatloaves, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs ground meat, I like to use a mix of ground turkey and ground beef
3/4 cup breadcrumbs, plain
1 medium onion, chopped fine
1/2 cup ketchup
2 eggs
3 tablespoons onion soup mix (one packet)
1/2 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons mustard

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!

QUICK & YUMMY MEATLOAF



Quick & Yummy Meatloaf image

I found a meatloaf recipe that used StoveTop Stuffing. I really liked it, but tweaked it to make it my own. Here is my version! (For appetizers, you can make these into meatloaf balls and use decorative appetizer picks to serve)

Provided by BK GeeGee

Categories     Meatloaf

Time 50m

Yield 1 loaf, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb lean ground beef
1 (120 g) box Stove Top stuffing mix (turkey)
1 large egg
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup ketchup, for the top (approx.)

Steps:

  • Add the beef, egg, 1/4 cup of ketchup and Worcestershire sauce in a large mixing bowl. Mix until well blended. Add the stuffing mix to the raw beef mixture. Mix until the stuffing is completely blended into the beef mixture (I find using a clean hand to mix the beef and stuffing to be the best method). Form mixture into a log shape and put on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle lots of ketchup over the top of the log. Bake in oven at 350 degrees until done (around 45 minutes - depending on the oven. Check periodically with a meat thermometer to ensure it is cooked thoroughly).

Number Of Ingredients 19

Meatloaf:
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 egg
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup milk
1 cup dry breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons prepared mustard

1 3-ounce mozzarella ball
1 can pitted large black olives
Sauce:
3/4 cup ketchup
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard

Steps:

  • To make the meatloaf:
  • 1. Heat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a 10 x 13-inch (or 10-inch round) baking dish. Combine the meat, egg, onion, milk, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Shape the mixture into a 10-inch round dome and place it in the baking dish. Mix the 1/3 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons prepared mustard in a small bowl until blended. Spread the mixture over the meatloaf. Bake for 1 hour. Transfer the meatloaf to a wire rack and let rest for 20 minutes.
  • 2. Cook the pappardelle according to the package directions; drain and keep warm while meatloaf rests.
  • To make the sauce:
  • 1. Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until bubbly and thickened, about 3 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • 2. Remove the meatloaf from the pan and place on a serving plate. Cut the mozzarella ball in half. Layer the pasta strands one by one over the meatloaf to look like a mummy's wrappings, adding the mozzarella and two olives for eyes as shown. Surround the meatloaf with more olives. Serve with the sauce on the side.
