Not only is this meal quick, but it’s one you can always have in your pantry, ready to mix up. I always seem to have ground turkey, onion soup mix, and a box of stuffing on hand.
How to Make 5 Ingredient Meatloaf:
This meatloaf only takes about 5 minutes to throw together then all you have to do is cook it. Start by mixing the stuffing and water in a large bowl and letting it sit for 2 minutes.
After the 2 minutes, mix the rest of the ingredients in. I’ve found that the best way to incorporate everything is to mix it with my hands!
Put it into a greased 9×9 dish and pat it down. Bake at 350 degrees for 60-65 minutes or until cooked through.
Let it cool for 5 minutes and then dish it up with your family’s favorite sides.
My favorite way to make this meal is to prep it earlier in the day. Then, I cover it and put it in the fridge until I am ready to bake it.
Later on, while the kids do homework or I bathe the little ones, dinner is cooking. I feel like a rockstar mom when I can pull meatloaf out, hot, fresh, and delicious.
COOKING FOR A CROWD?
If you have a large family or you want leftovers for easy lunches during the week, simply double the recipe. Put it in a 9×13 pan. You may need to cook a little longer, just keep an eye on it and make sure you cook it thoroughly.
What to put on your Meatloaf:
If you’re looking for something to top your meatloaf with, gravy is definitely the traditional route. However, my kids love when I mix a little brown sugar into some ketchup and spread it on top of hot meatloaf.
