Lori’s Classic Meatloaf
A comforting and hearty meatloaf made with ground beef, onions, and bread crumbs, bound together perfectly with eggs for a classic family favorite.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, finely chopped onion, and eggs.
- Add salt and black pepper, then mix everything gently until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
- Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in a lightly greased loaf pan or on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving for best texture and flavor.
