Mom's Meatloaf

This is how my mom taught me to make meatloaf and it's fantastic! :-)

2.5lbs ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
5 eggs
12-15 saltine crackers crumbled
1 16oz can of tomato sauce
Spices to taste:
Oregano
Garlic Salt
Pepper


Put ground beef and spices in a bowl

Add chopped onions and crumbled saltines

Add eggs and 3/4 of the can of tomato sauce

Mix with hands until completely combined. The only way I have found to completely mix this is to actually use your hands...if anyone has a better idea let me know! :-)


Put mixture into baking pan and form into a loaf, use side of hand to create a 'canal' down the center. Bake at 350° for 45 mins. Use last 1/4 can of tomato sauce to drizzle over top. Bake another 15-20 mins or until internal temp is 160°.

Finished product

Slice and serve with your favorite sides! :-) Serves 6.
