CORNFLAKE SWEET & SOUR MEATLOAF

I got this from a co-worker a couple of years ago. THIS IS THE ONLY MEATLOAF MY HUSBAND WILL EAT!! It's the only one I make now- it really is THAT good. I think the nutmeg plays a big part in the taste...a little secret ingredient. Sometimes I double the sauce part, or else I half the meat mixture and keep the sauce part the same.

This is a southern meatloaf. It is the only one I will eat. The sauce makes it the best. Its a little sweet and a little sour. I promise you will love it. It is great on a sandwich the next day with a little mayo and cheese. My husband makes me double this recipe and he would eat it every day if I cooked it! We always fight over the leftovers!!

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef: For a moist and flavorful meatloaf, use a combination of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef. The fat will help keep the meatloaf from drying out during baking.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use fresh cornflakes: Fresh cornflakes will add a crispy texture to the meatloaf. If you don't have fresh cornflakes, you can use crushed cornmeal or bread crumbs.
  • Bake the meatloaf in a preheated oven: This will help the meatloaf cook evenly.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf.

Conclusion:

Cornflake sweet and sour meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and sour flavors is sure to please everyone at your table. Plus, it's a great way to use up leftover cornflakes. So next time you're looking for a new meatloaf recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed.
