Classic Meatloaf Like My Mother Used to Make

I know, it is NOT the right meatloaf like YOUR mother made.  But it is what my mother (and I) do.  So there!  Our biggest disagreement was pickles/no pickles in our meatloaf sandwiches the next day

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 lbs lean ground beef
  • 3/4 C Quaker® Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)  (We just used a large handful for each pound of beef)
  • 3/4 C finely chopped onion  (or 1/2 c dried onions, or 2 Tab onion soup mix)
  • 1/2 Cup ketchup
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 Tab Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (or a lot of garlic salt, skip regular salt)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions:

  1. Heat oven to 350°.
  2. Combine all ingredients in large bowl; mix lightly but thoroughly.  (Take off your rings and use your hands!)
  3. Shape meatloaf mixture into 10×6-inch loaf.
  4. Bake 50 to 55 minutes or until meatloaf is to medium doneness (160°) until not pink in center and juices show no pink color.
  5. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.

Serves:   6-8
