I had a craving for meatloaf and for once I decided to actually write down the recipe for it instead of just throwing stuff in  willy nilly. This one turned out moist and delicious and everyone wanted seconds.  The option for cooking in a crock pot also makes it a winner for a hot summer day when you don’t want to heat up the kitchen with the oven.

Enjoy.

Ingredients

Meatloaf

• 2 eggs beaten
• 1/2 cup milk (I used almond milk and it was perfect.)
• 3/4 cup oatmeal (I used regular, not quick cooking.)
• 1 envelope dry onion soup mix
• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 1 can Ro-tel tomatoes (I used mild but use what suits your taste.)

Topping

• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Servings: servings

Instructions

1. 1. In a large bowl combine eggs, milk, oats and soup mix. Mix well and add meat. 2. Mix very thoroughly and then add 1 can of Ro-tel tomatoes. Mix with hands until thoroughly combined. 3. Shape into a loaf shape and place in lightly greased loaf pan. 4. Combine topping ingredients in a small bowl and brush liberally on top of the loaf. 5. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
2. This recipe can also be adapted for the crock pot. Simply follow the mixing instructions and place meat in a crock pot making sure the mixture does not touch the sides of the crock pot. Cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours. To make removal from the crock pot easier simply spray cooking spray lightly in the crock pot before placing the mixture inside. Lay a wide rectangle of aluminum foil in the crock pot making sure it hangs over the sides so that you can just lift the meatloaf right out when it is done cooking.
