TV Dinner Meatloaf Recipe

American · Main course · 75 min total

This nostalgic meatloaf is inspired by the classic TV dinner, featuring a tender, ketchup-glazed loaf that pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes and peas.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs ground beef (80/20)
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 cup ketchup (for glaze)
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for glaze)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, egg, 2 tablespoons ketchup, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined.
3. Transfer mixture to the prepared loaf pan and shape into a loaf. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup ketchup and brown sugar; spread over the top of the meatloaf.
4. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Tips

• Let the meatloaf rest before slicing to keep it moist.
• Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
• To reheat, microwave slices or warm in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes.
