Instructions
1 Preheat oven to 180°C. Use your hands to mix all ingredients together well in a large bowl. Line a loaf tin with greaseproof paper and press mixture into tin. Smooth the top evenly. Use mini loaf tins if you wish.
2 Place in oven and cook for 50 minutes-1 hour or until juices run clear. If cooking mini loaves these will take 25-30 minutes. (If you have a meat thermometer, check the internal temperature of your meatloaf has reached a temperature of 74°C for at least 15 seconds.)
HFG tip
- Serve this meatloaf with tomato salsa, lettuce and tomato salad, and potatoes or rice.
- This meatloaf has a softer texture but firms up well when cold. Great for sandwiches.
