Easy Freezer Meatloaf

This is your basic no frills meatloaf. Don't be discouraged from making it though. It has a good flavor and cooks up nicely to make meatloaf sandwiches with the left overs. I was very surprised myself. Thankfully, I made two for the freezer. 

1 - 1/2 lbs ground beef  
1 cup milk
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp rubbed sage, or fresh chopped sage
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground mustard
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs or stuffing mix
1 small onion, diced

Combine all ingredients. Shape into a large loaf and place in an ungreased 9x5in baking pan. Wrap with saran wrap, then foil, date and store in freezer for up to 6 months.

Thaw over night in fridge. When you are ready to cook, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake uncovered for 1 hour or until meat thermometer reads 160 degrees. Let cool to room temp and serve.

** Note: I use glass ware to prepare my meatloaves in. If you do the same be sure to let the pan sit out on the counter for one hour to become room temp or they will shatter in the oven. Pin It
