1 1/2 lbs ground beef (I use 80/20 but you can use leaner beef if preferred)

  • Allow the mixture to cool while you assemble the rest of the ingredients.
  • In a large bowl add the meat, tomato sauce, seasonings, eggs and crackers.

BO'S FAVORITE MEATLOAF - FOR MEATLOAF HATERS



Bo's Favorite Meatloaf - for Meatloaf Haters image

My husband has always sworn that he hates meat loaf. I came across a recipe in a Campbell Soup cook book and changed it to his taste. Now he wants this meat loaf every week and absolutely loves it. It stays moist and reheats very well so we can make a large batch of it at a time. We add it to omelets in the morning and make sandwiches out of it for lunch.

THE BEST MEATLOAF I'VE EVER MADE



The Best Meatloaf I've Ever Made image

When I was growing up, my mom never ever made meatloaf and I always wanted to try it - I finally tried it at a restaurant and loved it. When I moved out on my own I started experimenting with different recipes and creating my own version. I finally came up with the best meatloaf I have ever made, and I wanted to share it.
