Ingredients

MEATLOAF:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 pkg Stove Top Stuffing Mix
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup milk (I might add a splash more if I think it needs it)
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • salt and pepper to taste

TOPPING:

  • 1 tbsp Mustard
  • 1 tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 1/3 cup Ketchup

Instructions

  • In a large bowl mix together all the ingredients for the meatloaf, add to a baking dish of choice that has been sprayed with oil. Press down on meat mixture so it's even all over.
  • Mix together the topping and spread onto the meat topping
  • Bake at 350°F for 45-60 minutes, though it might be longer if you choose a taller dish versus a shallower one. Don't bake past 160°F internal temperature to avoid dry meatloaf.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Store leftover meatloaf in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat until heated through.
Freezer friendly when well wrapped to avoid freezer burn.
