Recipe Introduction

HINT: LINE BOTTOM ON PAN WITH BREAD SLICES BEFORE PUTTING THE MEATLOAF IN TO COOK, THE BREAD WILL ABSORB THE GREASE. when I make a meatloaf, after I put it in the pan, I wet my hands and "smooth" the top of the meatloaf. My mom taught me this and she said it "sealed" the loaf...

List of Ingredients

1-1/2 pounds lean ground beef or turkey
3/4 cup Quaker® Oats(quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup catsup
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper



Recipe

Heat oven to 350°F. Combine all ingredients in large bowl; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape meatloaf mixture into 10x6-inch loaf on rack of broiler pan.

Bake 50 to 55 minutes or until meatloaf is to medium doneness (160°F for beef, 170°F for turkey), until not pink in center and juices show no pink color. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Cover and refrigerate leftovers promptly and use within 2 days, or wrap airtight and freeze up to 3 months.
