Easy Meatloaf
Tender ground beef mixed with soft bread crumbs and sautéed onions bakes into a comforting loaf, then gets glazed with a sweet and tangy ketchup-brown sugar topping. The milk keeps the meat incredibly moist, while the simple seasoning lets the beef shine through. A true weeknight staple that delivers satisfying, home-cooked flavor with minimal effort.
