Meatloaf is a great family recipe. It only takes a few minutes to prep. While there is a longer cooking time, it’s hands off time. Add some veggies and you’re good to go. The mini usually will eat meatloaf without an issue.
The reason I picked this recipe was because of one ingredient, onion soup mix. I was cleaning out the pantry and noticed I had a leftover pack in the pantry, so I went in search of a recipe that called for it. I always rate my recipes on what the husband thought. Mainly because I’m not picky and I think most of the things I make are pretty good. It took a minute for him to realize how much he enjoyed this meal. He didn’t say much in the beginning but as he kept eating he started to rave. He even went as far as saying this was one of the best meatloaf recipes I’ve made. My favorite thing about this particular meal is how moist the meatloaf was. It wasn’t too sweet thanks to the onion soup mix, all of the ingredients meshed well together.
