Do you know what’s better than a good meatloaf? A great meatloaf!
Maybe you’ve tried one before, but we’ll bet that you haven’t tried the best. After all, you’re about to discover how much better it can be: with our Classic Homemade Meat Loaf Recipe.
The secret is in the spices—and we don’t mean just salt and pepper. We mean real spices! We use fresh thyme, garlic, and onion to create the perfect blend of flavors and textures. And then we mix them with ground beef to make your mouth water.
But it doesn’t stop there. We add eggs and milk so you can get that classic moist texture and extra protein boost you crave after a long week of work or school. Then we throw everything into a casserole dish and bake until golden brown perfection! It’s easy as pie (or meat loaf) to make at home—and even easier if you have our Classic Homemade Meat Loaf Recipe on hand!
