i am just learning how to cook and want to know how to make meatloaf.. simple recipes only please...no vegies in it and no onions or peppers or anything -my hubby hates them- i have absolutely no idea how to make it like i dont even know what temp to put it on or how much meat to buy or what seasoning to put in it or what to cook it in or anything lol thanks so much!!!
 
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 40 minutesIngredients:
•1 to 2 pounds ground beef
•1 egg
•1/2 to 1 cup cup milk
•1/4 cup ketchup
•1 tablespoon Worcestshire sauce or steak sauce
•Seasonings, to taste
•1 chopped onion or 1 package onion soup mix
•1 chopped green pepper
•1/2 cup crumbs (bread, cracker, oatmeal or cornflakes)
•1/2 cup tomato soup or sauce or ketchup

I crumble my ground beef in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl I combine my liquid ingredients; i.e. eggs, milk, and ketchup, worcestershire sauce, and/or steak sauce (whatever I happen to have on hand.) I beat well; if I use any seasonings I add now (oregano, basil, parsley, paprika).
I pour over the meat and mix well. If I am using chopped veggies (onions, peppers) and/or onion soup mix I add now and mix again. I then add my crumbs, (bread, cracker, oatmeal, and/or cornflakes) and mix again. I then put in a loaf pan, and top with tomato soup, or sauce, or ketchup. I then bake it for 1/2 an hour at 400 degrees, then lower to 350 and continue baking for an hour.

Mixing the meatloaf in steps ensures a more evenly seasoned and textured loaf.
