- Seasonings: Seasonings are essential for adding flavor to the meatloaf. Common seasonings include salt and pepper, dried herbs such as thyme or marjoram for depth of flavor.
- Other Filing Ingredients: Incorporating onions, carrots, spinach, and garlic into the meatloaf mixture not only enhances flavor and moisture but also provides added nutrition and colorful presentation. To further enhance the texture and binding of the meatloaf, it is essential to include ingredients such as eggs, bread slices, and milk in the mixture.

How To Make Meatloaf
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a loaf pan or baking dish with oil to prevent sticking.
While the oven is heating up, carefully boil 4 eggs.
In a skillet, sauté finely chopped onions, carrots, garlic, and spinach until they are tender and fragrant, adding a touch of flavor to the meatloaf.
In a bowl, combine the ground beef with quick oats, eggs, salt, pepper, marjoram, and the sautéed vegetables. Use your hands to thoroughly mix the ingredients until evenly combined.
Transfer one-third of the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan, creating a base for the meatloaf.
Carefully place the boiled eggs in the center of the meat, creating a delicious surprise in every slice of the meatloaf. Cover the eggs with the remaining meat mixture, shaping it into a loaf to seal in the flavors.
Generously grease a loaf pan with BBQ sauce to add flavor.
Place the assembled meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, ensuring it is cooked through.
Once the meatloaf is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes to allow the flavors to settle and make slicing easier.
Serve the scrumptious meatloaf with your choice of accompanying sides, such as creamy mashed potatoes, crisp green beans, or a fresh salad, to create a well-rounded and satisfying meal. Enjoy the flavorful and comforting combination of the meatloaf along with your favorite sides for a truly delightful dining experience.
