Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup crushed Ritz crackers
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup ketchup

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the ground beef in a mixing bowl and add the crushed Ritz crackers, milk, egg, onion, green bell pepper, salt, and black pepper.
  • Mix the ingredients with your hands or a fork just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the texture light.
  • Shape the mixture into a loaf and set it in a loaf pan or on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil.
  • Spread the ketchup evenly over the top of the loaf.
  • Bake for 55 to 60 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees. Remove from the oven and let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Crush the crackers right before mixing so they stay crisp and absorb the milk evenly. If the loaf seems loose after mixing, let it sit for a few minutes so the crackers can firm up the blend. Leftovers slice cleanly for sandwiches and reheat well in a covered skillet over low heat.
