You need lots more stuff for REAL meatloaf
proportions are all to taste
ground beef
bread crumbs
worcestershire sauce
A1 or ketchup
celery salt
egg
diced onion
diced celery
grated carrot
salt
pepper
1 pound ground beef, 20/80 but not any more lean than that
1 pound ground veal
1 pound ground pork
1 sleeve crackers, crushed in to fine crumbs
1 egg
1 large yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
yellow mustard
ketchup
oregano
salt
black pepper
Combine the meat and mix well in a large bowl, next add the onions, cracker crumbs, egg, spices and mix again. Add equal parts mustard and ketchup and mix until slightly wet but not soupy. Form into a loaf and back on a sheet pan at 400F for 45 minutes.
Got some cheese and need to use it up? Cut Cheddar, Monterrey Jack, and/or Swiss into 1/4 inch cubes and add it to the mix. Great on a cold winter night when it's not a problem to heat up the kitchen by running the oven. When I make meatloaf I have to make spuds to go with it, smashed spuds or this:
8-10 large Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 large yellow onion, diced
2 cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
Heavy whipping cream
8-10 oyster mushrooms, sliced
Salt
Black pepper
Butter
Break out you favorite heavy oven safe pot with a lid (read Dutch oven), coat the bottom and sides with butter, add the spuds and condensed soup, use one of the empty soup cans as a measuring device and pour two can fulls of cream into the pot, stir until all ingredients are well combined. Add the mushrooms and onions then stir again, add salt and pepper while mixing but taste to ensure you don't add too much salt. Put the lid on the pot and bake in the oven at 400F for an hour and a half or until potatoes are cooked through. Since this takes longer to cook than the meatloaf make this first and meatloaf next.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
