How To Make meatloaf

  • 1
    Combine eggs and milk; stir in breadcrumbs, onion, spices, sal and pepper. Add meat and mix lightly. NOTE: I personally use Italian Breadcrumbs instead of just regular. If you do this, you don't have to add the extra oregano, sage, and basil. I will do this depending on what is in my pantry at the time!
  • 2
    Bake at 350 for 1 - 1:15 hour. Spoon off fat. combine ketchup, sugar, and mustard and spread over meat. Bake for 10 mins more.
