Delicious Homemade Meat Loaf Recipe

Here in our home, we love a good homemade meat loaf. When I make meatloaf, I always double up on my recipe and freeze a fully cooked one for later use. It can be thawed out quickly and reheated for a quick dinner or lunch.

One of my favorite recipes to use is this one that I got from my great aunt about 15 years ago. This recipe will make 6 servings.

Delicious Homemade Meat Loaf Recipe

1 1/2 lbs. lean ground beef
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 cup fine seasoned bread crumbs
1/8 cup finely chopped onions
2 tsp. prepared mustard
1 tbsp. oregano

Topping:

1/4 cup ketchup
1/2 tsp. mustard
2 tbsp. light brown sugar

In a large mixing bowl combine together all of the above ingredients except those listed for the topping, until they are well combined. Press meat mixture into a loaf baking pan. In a small mixing bowl combine together the topping ingredients and then pour them over the top of the meat mixture.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place loaf pan into a hot oven and bake for approximately 30 to 40 minutes or until done. Remove and serve immediately.

This sounds like a delicious meatloaf recipe, very similar to the one my grandma used to make.
