Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 packet (about 6 ounces) of Stove-Top stuffing mix
- 1 cup chicken broth or water
- 1 large egg
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: chopped vegetables or cheese for extra flavor
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine ground meat, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, and seasonings.
- Prepare Stove-Top stuffing according to package instructions using chicken broth or water. Once cooked, add the stuffing to the meat mixture and mix thoroughly.
- Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish or loaf pan. Shape into a loaf form, ensuring even distribution.
- Bake for approximately 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Broil for an additional 2-3 minutes for a crispy crust if desired.
- Allow the meatloaf to rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with your preferred sides.
Notes
- Use lean ground meat for a healthier version.
- Add shredded cheese on top during the last few minutes of baking for extra flavor.
- Mix in chopped vegetables like bell peppers or carrots for added nutrition.
- Serve with complementary sides like creamy beef pasta or sweet and sour meatballs.
