EASY PLEASING EXTRA LEAN MEATLOAF



Easy Pleasing Extra Lean Meatloaf image

A slightly altered recipe from Kraft Canada's Easy Pleasing Meatloaf. I've made it a few times and really like it; it lives up to it's name quite well. This would probably work with other kinds of meats as well as meatless mixtures.

EASY PLEASING MEATLOAF



Easy Pleasing Meatloaf image

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds Lean Ground Beef
1 package STOVE TOP Stuffing Mix for Chicken
1 cup Water
1 Beaten Egg

Steps:

  • Step 1. Heat oven to 375°F.
  • Step 2. Mix meat, stuffing mix, water, eggs and 1/4 cup barbecue sauce just until blended.
  • Step 3. Shape into loaf in 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground meat: A combination of beef and pork is a classic choice for meatloaf, but you can also use all beef, all pork, or even ground turkey or chicken. If using a leaner meat, add some extra fat, such as bacon or butter, to keep the meatloaf moist.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the meatloaf will taste. Use fresh herbs and spices, and avoid using canned or jarred ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Shape the meatloaf into a loaf: Form the meatloaf mixture into a loaf shape and place it in a baking dish. Make sure the meatloaf is evenly shaped so that it cooks evenly.
  • Bake the meatloaf at a moderate temperature: Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: After the meatloaf is done baking, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This will help the meatloaf to stay moist and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make a meatloaf that is moist, flavorful, and sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give this easy-pleasing meatloaf recipe a try.
