French Onion Meat Loaf Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Bake: 1 hour + standing

Yield: 8 Servings

20 60 80

Ingredients

3 eggs
1 can (10-1/2 ounces) condensed French onion soup, undiluted
1 package (6 ounces) crushed beef-flavored stuffing mix
2 pounds lean ground beef

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the eggs, soup and contents of stuffing package; mix well. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into a loaf in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour or until meat is no longer pink and a meat thermometer reads 160°. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Yield: 8 servings.

If cooking for two, shape the meat mixture for the French Onion Meat Loaf into two-smaller loaves, instead of one large one. Bake for about 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Enjoy one loaf and freeze the other to reheat later.

Made it with deer meat...because...well...we live in Texas and have a ranch. ;-) It was amazing! Made it just like the recipe. No changes with the exception of TURKEY stove top stuffing. It was so good!!!!!! Will make it again!

Very easy to make and tasted great! I was not able to find beef-flavored stuffing, so I went with sage and it turned out excellent! Looking forward to having this one again.

I love this recipe. My husband is the meatloaf lover of the house and I am the meatloaf hater. But I can learn to love meatloaf if it is moist and flavorful like this one. I have made this several times and each time I either used savory herbs or traditional sage.

My meatloaf attempts always fail, until now! This one was a hit all around my big family! And the best part is that it is SUPER simple! This will go into my recipe collection, for sure.

When I made this I combined two recipes. I used the French onion meat loaf with the meatloaf wellington recipe. I used the garlic flavored cresent rolls and made a gravy out of a second can of french onion soup. My family loved it. Even my ten year self proclaimed meatloaf hater ate two slices.
