Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup of the cream of mushroom soup, 2 lbs lean ground round, 1/3 cup dry bread crumbs, 1/4 cup ketchup, 2 beaten eggs, 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp dry mustard, and 1/4 tsp pepper.
  3. Mix thoroughly with your hands until all ingredients are evenly distributed and the mixture holds together.
  4. Press the mixture firmly into a 9x5 inch loaf pan, smoothing the top.
  5. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160ðF and the loaf is cooked through.
  6. Remove from oven and drain any liquid from the pan.
  7. Let the meat loaf stand in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
  8. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the remaining cream of mushroom soup with 1/3 cup water.

  10. Slice the meat loaf and serve with the warm mushroom sauce on top.

Note

For a richer flavor, you can add finely chopped onions or bell peppers to the meat mixture.

If you prefer a crustier top, bake the loaf uncovered for the last 10 minutes of cooking.

Leftover meat loaf can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

To freeze, wrap individual slices tightly in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.

Ensure the ground beef is fully cooked by checking the internal temperature with a meat thermometer.
