The Best Meatloaf

There was yum in every bite. Repeat, there was yum in every bite. 

Easy dinner recipe

• The prep is so easy. 

Get out your ingredients. A large mixing bowl, spatula, and loaf pan baking dish. You’ll have this whipped up so quickly. How easy? Mix in one big bowl, and then scoop in the baking pan, and top it with ketchup. Then it goes straight in the oven to bake.

Start your mashed potatoes cooking. Add a side salad, carrots, or any veggie you like to complete your dinner. We didn’t make gravy, honestly this doesn’t need it. 

Directions for how to make meatloaf

Add minced garlic, chopped baby spinach, feta cheese, diced roasted red peppers, yellow onion, bread crumbs, and egg into a bowl.

• Next add your spices
• Mix together

Then add your ground beef (I used lean ground beef) combine, and put mixture into your pre sprayed baking dish. 

• I pre spray my baking dish with  Pam Olive Oil

Slightly press down your mixture making it topped evenly. 

Add your measured ketchup to the top.

Spread it all over, and it’s ready to pop into the oven to bake. Does it get any easier? I think not. Unless, your ordering in. Wink, wink.
