Editor's note: I just have to share my Mom's meatloaf recipe with you. After this, any other meatloaf is just not a consideration. Try it once, and you will fix it the rest of your days. I don't think meatloaf taste right unless you have it with mashed potatoes and sweet peas! Meatloaf Preheat oven to 325 degrees Grease meatloaf pans (butter will work) You will definitely want to make more than one pan! 1 pound ground chuck Mix in one egg Mix in 1 chopped onion Mix in 1 chopped bell pepper Mix in ½ cut Quaker five-minute oatmeal Mix in 2 Tbsp catsup Mix in 1 eight ounce can tomato sauce Mix in ½ tsp salt Stir together really well and place into meatloaf pan. Squeeze plenty of catsup on top. Also, to keep edges from burning, rinse the tomato paste can with a couple of Tbsp water and drip tomato water around all four edges of the meatloaf. Bake 2 hours. It will sometimes take less time, so checking it at 1 ½ hours is not too early to take the first look. |
