Number Of Ingredients 8

3 lb ground beef
4 slices bread crumbled
1 tsp salt and pepper
3/4 tsp poultry seasoning
1 medium onion chopped
1 1/2 can(s) chicken and rice soup
3 eggs
3/4 c shredded carrots

Steps:

  • 1. Combine all ingredients thoroughly bake at 375 for about 1 hour

Tips:

  • Add plenty of flavorings: Don't be afraid to add your favorite herbs, spices, and vegetables to the meatloaf mixture. Some popular additions include onions, garlic, breadcrumbs, eggs, and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Mix the ingredients thoroughly: Be sure to mix the meatloaf mixture well so that all of the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Shape the meatloaf into a loaf: Place the meatloaf mixture into a loaf pan and shape it into a loaf. You can also use a free-form method and shape the meatloaf into a ball or log.
  • Bake the meatloaf at a moderate temperature: Bake the meatloaf in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: Let the meatloaf rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices to redistribute and make the meatloaf easier to slice.
