It goes well with mashed potatoes and your favorite green vegetable dish. Peas and corn, green beans, asparagus and broccoli are just a few ideas that could be served with this.

Meatloaf Ingredients

Bread crumbs. I like to use plain bread crumbs that you can buy from the store. You can also make your own from toasted bread, corn flakes or plain crackers.

Milk. Use any kind of milk, including your favorite nut or rice milk.

Ground beef. I like to use lean, but use whatever you have in your fridge.

Egg. The egg is a binder that helps the meatloaf stay in one piece as it bakes. Use any egg, but free run and organic will provide more nutrition for you.

Onion. Any cooking onions will do here. One onion is about one cup of diced onion.

Garlic. Garlic and ground beef go hand in hand. It gives the meat a rich flavor, not to mention a few health benefits for the body.

Italian seasoning. You can purchase Italian seasoning mixes, or you can make your own. I use this homemade Italian seasoning recipe.

Worcestershire sauce. Worcestershire sauce is not only flavorful, but it also helps to keep the meatloaf moist as it bakes.

Ketchup. Same with ketchup, it provides moisture while providing a delicious flavor that pretty much all kids love.
