Well I do not measure the ingredients when I make it but here it is. I use hamburger meat of course, brown sugar, whole wheat ritz crackers (crumbs), an egg, tomato sauce, ketchup, tiny bit of mustard, throw some spices in there, sometimes I put cheese in there too. Then when it is finished I put brown sugar and ketchup on top for a glaze and bake for like 15 more min.
1 1/2 Ib. Ground Beef
1 Pack Saltine Crackers (crushed)
2 Eggs
1 Small Onion Chopped
About 1/4 Cup Ketchup (this is lenient so..)
Mix together in a large bowl, place in a baking pan and voile!
You can also mix about 1/2 cup ketchup and a bit of brown sugar for a VERY good meatloaf topping (sweet and tangy)
I just make a basic meatloaf and add taco seasoning and salsa to it. You can add grated cheese too if you like. It gives it a Mexican flair and makes yummy sandwiches.
