Homemade Meatloaf

By Diana Rattray, About.com

This old fashioned meatloaf is made with lean ground beef, ketchup, a sliced tomato and American cheese slices.

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1 cup fresh soft bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 2 eggs, well-beaten
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried leaf oregano, crumbled
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • 4 to 6 slices American cheese

Preparation:

Combine ground beef, bread crumbs, onion, milk, ketchup, eggs, salt, pepper, and oregano. Mix gently until well blended. Shape into a loaf (about 8x5 inches) on a 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Arrange tomato slices on top of the loaf. Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes at 350°. Place cheese slices, overlapping, over the tomatoes the last 5 to 10 minutes. Serves 6 to 8.
