Meatloaf Madness!
Check out this fabulous plate of two glorious slices of meatloaf chillin’ with their best friend, mashed potatoes! The perfect combo for a meal that says, “I’m too cool for fancy dinners!”
Recipe Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef (or turkey if you’re fancy)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup onion, chopped (that’s where the tears come in!)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup ketchup (plus more for glazing, obviously)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (because life is short)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (for that extra punch)
Instructions to Meatloaf Glory:
- Preheat that oven of yours to 350°F (that’s 175°C for the fancy folks).
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, milk, and eggs. The mixture should feel like a bizarre science experiment!
- Add in the ketchup, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix it all up like your life depends on it!
- Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in a baking dish (make it as loafy as you like!).
- Slop some ketchup on top for good measure (who doesn’t love extra ketchup?).
- Pop it in the oven and let it bake for about 1 hour, or until the meatloaf hits that perfect internal temperature of 160°F (that’s when you can pat yourself on the back).
- Once it’s cooked, let it rest for a few minutes (because even meatloaf needs a break), slice it up, and serve it up with a side of mashed potatoes!
And there you have it—your very own meatloaf explosion of flavor! Get your fork ready and prepare to dive in. Don’t forget to share with friends (or claim it all for yourself—it’s a tough call)! Happy munching!
