Crock Pot Meatloaf

Meatloaf is one of those meals you either love or hate. I personally think the word ‘loaf’ makes it sound gross. But in any case, our family loves it. I remember having it for dinner when I was a kid.. and now it’s made it to our menu plan but with a twist.. the crockpot! Cooking meatloaf in the crockpot is simple! All you need to do is prepare your meatloaf as you normally would. I use…

  • 1-2lbs of ground beef (the less fat the better)
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 tbsp A-1 Sauce
  • 5 tbsp Ketchup
  • 1 cup bread crumbs (or cracker crumbs)
  • 1 packet of Lipton beef mix
  • 3-4 slices of bacon
  • 2 slices loaf bread

I mix all the ingredients together (except the bacon and loaf bread). After mixing them together I form it into a loaf. Now the loaf bread goes in the bottom of the crockpot. It absorbs all the fat and sauces so your meatloaf isn’t swimming in the crockpot and I top it with the bacon to add flavor. Set it on high for 4 to 5 hours and viola!

Here is the meatloaf all done Smile

Today in North Carolina it has be wet, rainy, and rather dreary. I decided early on in the day that it would be a perfect night for soup. I rambled through the cabinets and put this together. Here are my ingredients….

 

Ingredients

  • Crockpot
  • 1lb of ground beef
  • 1 container of Philadelphia Cooking Crème- Original Flavor
  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 1 bag Ore Ida Hasbrowns
  • 1 velveeta cheese 8oz stick
  • 1 chicken broth stock 32oz.
  • small onion diced

I fried the hamburger up, cooked the bacon in the microwave and crumbled, and then dumped all the ingredients in the crock pot. The frozen potatoes (closely related to buns right?), diced onion, cooking crème velveeta, and chicken stock. I placed it on high for about 4 to 5 hours.. stirring occasionally.

And voila! I topped with fried onions and a little more bacon..It was absolutely delish and will definitely make a reappearance!
