I'm not sure what prizes this dish won, but I did enjoy it. And, it's easy...always a plus. I had not made a meatloaf in years, not since we got our new oven, so I figured it was time. However, I could not find my standby meatloaf recipe so I searched for another one. It just so happened as I was reading another "new to me" cookbook I'd gotten at the used bookstore, I came upon this recipe and decided to give it a try. We both enjoyed it and I hope you do too!
Ingredients
1.5 lbs ground beef
3/4 cup uncooked oats
1/4 onion, chopped
1/5 tsps salt
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp pepper
1 cup ketchup
1 egg,beaten
1 Tbsp mustard
Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly. Add milk if mixture is dry or flour if mixture is too moist. Mold in a loaf an dpack firmly into an ungreased 9X5" loaf pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
I had never used oats in meatloaf before, but I liked it and it's probably a little healthier than bread crumbs, which are traditionally used. I will say, though, that I could not slice this particularly well. It kept falling apart. Nevertheless, it tasted great! I served it with the Delicious Potatoes that I blogged awhile back and it was a delicious combo! Enjoy!
