Best Taco Meat Loaves Recipes

TACO MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
• In a medium to large-sized mixing bowl combine the meatloaf ingredients (ground beef, tortilla chips, cheese, milk, eggs, taco seasoning, dried minced onion) with the exception of the taco sauce. Mix just enough to combine, and do not over-mix the meatloaf.
• Transfer the meatloaf mixture into a 9x5-inch loaf pan and shape the loaf (leaving a well around the edges gives the fat somewhere to drain off to).
• Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes, then remove the meatloaf and top with red taco sauce if desired. Return to your oven and continue cooking an additional 10-15 minutes (55-60 minutes total) or until the meatloaf has an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) before serving.
• Remove the fully cooked meatloaf from your oven and loosely tent with a sheet of aluminum foil. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
