American · Main course · 80 min total

A classic comfort food dinner featuring a juicy, savory meatloaf paired with creamy mashed potatoes. This recipe is simple to follow and yields a satisfying meal for the whole family.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs ground beef (80/20)
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup milk (for mashed potatoes)
• Salt and pepper to taste (for mashed potatoes)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup milk, onion, garlic, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Mix until just combined.
2. Shape the mixture into a loaf and place on a foil-lined baking sheet or in a loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 160°F. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
3. While meatloaf bakes, place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
4. Return potatoes to the pot and mash with butter and 1/2 cup milk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Slice meatloaf and serve with mashed potatoes. Optionally, top with gravy or additional ketchup.

Tips

• For a glaze, mix 1/4 cup ketchup, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon mustard; spread on top before baking.
• Leftover meatloaf makes great sandwiches.
• Mashed potatoes can be made ahead and reheated with a splash of milk.
