Applesauce and Stuffing Meatloaf Recipe
(Serves 4-6)
1.25 – pound of Ground Chuck
1 – 6 oz Package of Stuffing
1 – Egg
1 – 4 oz container or a 1/2 cup of Applesauce
Optional: Ketchup
Directions:
Combine all the ingredients. You will need to get your hands in there and work it all in completely.
Place this into a loaf pan and cook in a preheated oven at 350° degrees for 45 minutes. At 45 minutes spread the ketchup on top and place it back into the oven for 5-10 more minutes.
If you skip the ketchup, leave the meatloaf in for a total of 50-55 minutes.
As always confirm that it is cooked through by following the USDA Guidelines for Cooked Meat and use a thermometer. It should reach an internal temperature of 160 ° degrees F.
This meatloaf is easy to create and it looks pretty. I paired it with green beans and hash browns, and it was a perfect meal for our family.
