This meatloaf is extremely juicy, and the potential variety of different flavors is as big as your imagination. I've done American cheese with ketchup and mustard on top and served with dill pickle chips. Another one might be Swiss cheese and mushroom topping.

CHEESEBURGER MEAT LOAF



Cheeseburger Meat Loaf image

I created this meat loaf one day when I wanted to make cheeseburgers-my husband's favorite-but it was too chilly to grill outside. I've served it numerous times since then, and it never fails to get rave reviews. Even your most finicky eater will enjoy this oven-baked main dish. And you'll appreciate the price-just 51¢ a serving. -Paula Sullivan Barker, New York

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your meatloaf.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a loaf pan that is the right size: If the loaf pan is too big, the meatloaf will be too thin and dry. If the loaf pan is too small, the meatloaf will be too thick and dense.
  • Bake the meatloaf at a moderate temperature: This will help to prevent the meatloaf from drying out.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: This will help the meatloaf to hold together better.
  • Serve the meatloaf with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and gravy are all great options.
