I created this recipe for meatloaf without ketchup because I needed a meatloaf that contained no tomatoes or tomato sauce. I added a hint of hot sauce to avoid blandness. Serve with mashed potatoes and veggies.
Ingredients
- onion: 1 cup (diced)
- green bell pepper: 1 cup (diced)
- Italian-style bread crumbs: 0.75 cup
- hot pepper sauce: 0.25 cup
- egg: 1 piece
- salt: 1 tsp
- ground black pepper: 1 tsp
- ground beef: 2 pound
- packet dry brown gravy mix: 1 piece (.75 ounce)

Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
Mix onion, bell pepper, bread crumbs, hot pepper sauce, egg, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add ground beef and mix until well combined. Press into a loaf pan and sprinkle gravy mix over top.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until browned on the outside and no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
