Meatloaf

(Easy and Quick Recipes for One)

Even though this isn’t a quick one-person recipe, I still wanted to include it because it’s super easy and freezes really well in individual portions. Great on a sandwich with mayonnaise too!

  • 2 pounds ground beef (or a mix of ground beef and ground turkey)
  • 1 beaten egg
  • 1/4 cup minced onion
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 cup tomato juice (or 1/4 cup ketchup mixed with 3/4 cup water if you don’t have any tomato juice)
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • 2 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 cup quick 1-minute oats

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl combine beaten egg, onion, ketchup, tomato juice, mustard, seasoned salt, pepper and paprika. Mix in oats, then mix in the meat until well combined. Don’t overmix or your meatloaf could become tough. Pat mixture into a loaf pan (or shape into a loaf and place in a baking pan). Bake at 350°F for about 1 hour or until done (internal temperature 165°F).
