Ingredients

Scale

1–1.5 pounds ground beef (or combination of beef and pork)
1 packet onion soup mix
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
2 large eggs (beaten)
1/3 cup milk
1/2 cup ketchup or tomato paste
2 tablespoons brown sugar (optional)
1 tablespoon mustard
Optional: Diced vegetables (carrots, bell peppers)
Optional: 1/2 cup shredded cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a loaf pan or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine ground meat, onion soup mix, breadcrumbs, beaten eggs, and milk. Mix gently until just combined.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan or sheet and shape into a loaf.
In a small bowl, mix ketchup or tomato paste, brown sugar, and mustard. Spread glaze over the meatloaf.
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite sides.

Notes

Do not overmix the meat to maintain tenderness. Let the meatloaf rest after baking to retain moisture. Customize with your favorite vegetables, cheese, or glaze variations.
