I will warn you this is not your Mamma’s meatloaf recipe. I took some ideas from other recipes over the years and put them all into one. I am not a chef by any means but I have made and tested this beauty myself. It contains some unconventional ingredients but trust me its fiance approved and I call him Picky McPickerson when it comes to food. We are only cooking for 2 so these portions might be good for 2 and a couple of leftovers but its easy to double.
- 1lb of hamburger (I use 94%/6%)
- 1 cup of bread crumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 package of recipe secrets – onion
- 1 heaping spoonful of minced garlic
- 1 bag of REAL bacon bits (4.5 oz.)
In regard to the REAL bacon bits I recommend using them vs. trying to make your own bacon and chopping it. I have actually tried that and its nearly impossible to get the pieces as small as they do with that package.
Combined all the ingredients into a bowl. Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees and pop that bad boy in for about 30 minutes. And last but not least … ENJOY!
