Ground meat sales have hit the stores! I was browsing Aldi and noted ground beef packages for $2.49 a pound. Now is the season to include some delicious meatloaf to your fare. The recipe below is quick and thrifty using ingredients you have on hand already.
This satisfying family favorite never goes out of style. Made from an old world style recipe featuring home style spices and tomato ketchup. Why not wrap leftover slices for a quick-frozen delight? You can than make future great meat loaf sandwiches or a quick and easy dinner. Just heat in the microwave and enjoy.
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup milk
2/3 cup crushed saltines
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 tsp. salt
4 tab. ketchup
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 pd. ground beef
Sauce
1 cup ketchup
1/2 packed brown sugar
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl combine first seven ingredients. Add beef and mix lightly. Shape into an 8x4 in. loaf and place on a 15x10x1 baking pan.
In a small bowl, combine remaining ingredients, stirring to dissolve. Place all but 1/2 cup mixture on top of meatloaf. Bake 1 hour. Serve with remaining sauce.
