Brown Sugar Meatloaf

From: Here

Ingredients:

Topping:

1/2 C packed brown sugar

1/2 C ketchup

 

Meatloaf Mix Ingredients:

3 lbs lean ground beef

1/2 C milk

2 eggs

1 1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp ground black pepper

1/2 bags onion or 1 onion chopped

1/4 tsp ground ginger

1/2 C oatmeal

 

Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly grease a 5x9 inch loaf pan. Combine meatloaf mix ingredients. Form into loaf and top with ketchup mix (mixed ketchup and brown sugar). Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until juices are clear.

 

 

Verdict:

I wasn't a big fan of this. I thought it was very sweet, and my husband and 3-year old wouldn't even touch it. This picture, though, shows exactly how much my 20-month old ate in one sitting. So obviously this might be a good match for your family! As for myself, I'll stick with my mom's meatloaf.

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Put in loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about an hour.

What I did differently from this recipe:
It is blasphemy to think I would change this recipe.

Verdict:
Thumbs up!! It wasn't 1000% like my mom's but I'm sure it never will be!! It was close enough that this is going to become a staple food around here! Thank you Mom!
