My search is over for the perfect easy meatloaf. Excellent flavor.. I think the Worcestershire really does the trick. I used red onion for the grated onion, which I grated on the finest grating blade. I only had 1 cup of breadcrumbs, so I used cracker crumbs for the remaining cup. This makes 2 meatloaves, about 8 slices each loaf. -
I've been forgetting to review this. I first made it back in October and we've had it several times since then. It is SOOOOOO good. I make it with 2.5 pounds of ground turkey, a sleeve of crushed saltine crackers, and a least 5 T worcestershire. I cook it for 45 minutes, put the ketchup on and cook it another 30 minutes. The comment box is over the instructions, so I can't see how many loaves it says to make. I make two and place them at either end of a 9x13 dish. Thank you for this great recipe! -
I made this on 10/14/07,and since it was just me(I only get meatloaf when SO isn't home)I cut this recipe in half.Even as I was mixing this,I thought that there was way too much breadcrumbs.And after tasting the finished product,I was right.If I do make this again I'm going to use just a 1/2 cup of crumbs,and maybe add some garlic powder.Thank you for posting,and "Keep Smiling:)"

Love to try different recipes that I've never done before. Nothing to spicy or exotic and if I have all the ingredients I will try to make it. I love this website and all the different chefs on here. I also like to tweak my own recipes that I've posted after I read other chefs tweaks of my recipes. It helps me to be a lot more courageous in trying new recipes on myself. Thank you to all the chefs on Food.com
