Nana’s Meatloaf is one of those old fashioned dinners that instantly feels like home. It’s made with simple ingredients, plenty of seasoning and that sweet and tangy ketchup glaze that gets perfectly sticky as it bakes.

This is the kind of recipe I grew up with and still love making today. Nothing fancy, just a good homemade meatloaf with mashed potatoes and something green on the side. Some dinners just never need changing.

Ingredients:

2 lbs ground beef

1 large onion finely chopped

1 bell pepper finely chopped

1-2 tsp seasoned salt

1 tsp black pepper

1/2-1 c quick cooking oats

1 egg slightly beaten

8 ounces canned petite diced tomatoes with juice

2 tsp garlic powder

2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Topping:

2/3 c ketchup

4 tbsp brown sugar

2 tbsp mustard

Preparation:

Mix together meatloaf ingredients well, place in greased baking dish and shape into a loaf. Or divide into smaller loaves and place on greased sheet pan. Combine topping ingredients and spread evenly over the top. Bake at 375 for 1.5 hours or until meat is cooked thoroughly.
