I do not like onions!

Answer 1

I got the old family recipe for you


1 ½ LBS. GROUND BEEF
1 CUP BREAD CRUMBS
1 ONION, FINELY CHOPPED
1 EGG
1 ½ TSP. SALT
¼ TSP. PEPPER
2 8OZ. CANS TOMATO SAUCE
½ CUP WATER
3 TBS. VINEGAR
3 TBS. BROWN SUGAR
2 TBS. MUSTARD
2 TBS. WORCHESTIER SAUCE


MIX TOGETHER BEEF, CRUMBS, ONION, BEATEN EGG, SALT, PEPPER AND ½ CAN TOMATO SAUCE. FORM INTO LOAF. PUT INTO PAN. COMBINE THE REST OF THE STUFF AND POUR OVER THE LOAF. BAKE AT 350 FOR ONE HOUR AND 15 MIN.

Answer 2

After you have mastered a meatloaf recipe you like, I have a suggestion for another great main dish you might like.
Using your meatloaf recipe, mix well and then form into large meatballs...my family makes them bigger than baseballs. Put them in a baking pan and bake at 350' till done.
Meanwhile, mix: 3/4 cup catsup and 3/4 cup brown sugar. Sprinkle with garlic powder and black pepper. I use onion powder too but of course that's optional. Mix well.
When meatballs are done, drain them well. Then spoon catsup mixture over each meatball. Put back into oven for 15-20 minutes until the glaze looks "done"...it will set up and be shiny. I always serve these with creamy mashed potatoes and Italian green beans. It's a family favorite meal you might want to try.

Answer 3

Hey - Here's one I found - not a meatloaf lover but seems simple enough and the lady says her family loves it. My only caution would be excess liquid in the salsa, as the tomatos etc should provide enough moistness. Don't remove ALL the juices, just careful on excess...

50 min 5 min prep
Change to: servings US Metric
1 lb lean ground beef
1 cup thick & chunky salsa or picante sauce
2/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons additional breadcrumbs (may need, depending on consistantsy salsa or picante sauce)

mix all ingredents well by hand and place in glass 8x8 square cassorole. you can even drizzle with catsup.
place in a preheated oven set at 375 degrees and bake until done.(about 45 mins.).

Answer 4

Meatloaf is a matter of taste. You can put ANYTHING in it.
Groundbeef, pork, ham, turkey.
With Groundbeef, use ketchup, saltines, snack crackers, or oatmeal. Eggs. Maple Syrup or Brown Sugar, Parmesan cheese. Salt pepper & Garlic. Brown. I have sometimes when there is about 10 minutes before you are ready to serve take it out and put a layer of thinly slices cheese over the top and then cover with non rolled up crescent rolls then bake again till they are done.
