Rotel Meatloaf Recipes

MEATLOAF

Steps:

• For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Pour the milk over the bread and allow it to soak in for several minutes. Place the ground beef, milk-soaked bread, Parmesan, salt, some pepper, seasoned salt and parsley in a large mixing bowl. Pour in the eggs. With clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined.
• Form the mixture into a loaf shape on a foil-lined broiler pan, which will allow the fat from the meat to drain.
• Lay the bacon slices over the top, tucking them underneath the meatloaf to give the meatloaf some support.
• Next, make the tomato sauce: Pour the ketchup into a bowl. Add the brown sugar and dry mustard, and splash in the hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Stir the mixture until well combined. Pour one-third of the sauce over the top of the meatloaf.
• Bake for 45 minutes, and then pour over another one-third of the remaining tomato sauce over the meatloaf. Bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes; the meatloaf should be no longer pink in the middle. Allow to sit 10 minutes before serving.
• Serve with the remaining tomato sauce on the side as a dipping sauce.

THE MOST EASY AND DELISH MEATLOAF EVER!

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Beat the egg in a mixing bowl, then add the ground beef, tomatoes, and crushed crackers. Season with onion flakes, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined. Pack into a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

CLASSIC SLOW-COOKER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Line 4 1/2- to 5-quart slow cooker with foil. Spray foil with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix all ingredients except ketchup. Shape mixture into loaf, and place in center of slow cooker. Spread ketchup over top.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 3 to 4 hours or until meat thermometer inserted in center of loaf reads 160°F. Remove meatloaf from slow cooker to serving platter. Cut into pieces to serve.

TEX MEX MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, eggs, diced tomatoes and green chile peppers, onion powder, ground black pepper, salt and bread. Mix together well, place in a 5x9 inch loaf pan and top with the cheese.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour.

RO-TEL MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix all ingredients well in a large bowl.
• Pack into an ungreased 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 by 2 1/2 inch loaf pan.
• Bake for 1 hour.
• Drain off all extra pan juices.
• Let sit for 5 minutes then serve.
• I like to serve this with steamed tortillas, brown rice and a green salad.

LINDA'S MEXICAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Mix the hamburger, minced onions, bread crumbs, beaten egg, and Italian Seasoning together well with your hands.
• Add in the ketchup, 1/2 the can of tomato sauce, and 1/2 the can of Ro-tel tomatoes. Mix well.
• Put 1/2 the mixture into an oven-proof baking pan (I used a teflon pan), making a square or a circle, whichever you prefer.
• Cover the top of the meat mixture with a generous amount of cheese, not coming quite to the edge.
• Top the cheese with the rest of the hamburger mix, and pat down to make a loaf. Press the sides together a little so the cheese won't drip out when cooking.
• Mix the tomato sauce and Ro-tel tomatoes together and spread on top of the meatloaf.
• Bake in a 350 oven, for about 30 minutes before taking it out, to drain off the juices in the pan. (I set the juices aside to put in my Mexican Rice, as part of the water to make the rice).
• Put back in oven for 30 more minutes then take out, and cover to top of the meatloaf with the rest of the cheese.
• Put back in the oven, and watch carefully for the cheese to melt on top.
• Remove, cut, and serve.
