Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound ground beef
1 Tbl Montreal Steak Seasoning
1 tbl garlic, minced
1/4 cup minced onions
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 1/4 cups old fashioned rolled oats (regular or gluten free oats)
1 tbl Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbl ketchup
1 15-ounce can tomato soup, divided

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350F, rack in the middle.
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray.
In a large bowl add the oats and milk and gently mix.
Set aside for 15 minutes to allow the oats to soak in the milk.
After 15 minutes strain out the milk into a separate container but do not discard.
In the bowl the oats are in add the ground beef, eggs, steak seasoning, garlic, onions, ketchup, and 3 Tbl of tomato soup.
Just combine but try not to overwork it as it will get tough. If the mixture is too wet, add in 1-2 more Tbl of oats (don't worry if they aren't soaked). If too dry, add in the milk 1-2 Tbl at a time. You want the mixture to be pretty moist but firm enough to hold a shape.
In the bowl gently press together.
Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and using your hands, form a loaf that is about 12 inches long, 6 inches wide, and about 2 1/2 inches tall. The loaf should be smooth and have rounded edges. This will help the loaf stay together when serving.
Bake for 30 minutes, remove from the oven and spread the remaining tomato soup on top of the meatloaf.
Continue baking for another 30 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
