Stove Top Stuffing Meatloaf Recipe

Ingredients (Serves 6–8)

✅ 2 lbs ground beef
✅ 1 box Stove Top Stuffing (any flavor)
✅ ¾ cup ketchup
✅ ⅓ cup whole milk
✅ 2 teaspoons minced garlic
✅ 2 large eggs

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, dry Stove Top Stuffing mix (right out of the box), ketchup, milk, garlic, and eggs.
Mix thoroughly using clean hands or a sturdy spoon until fully combined.

Step 3: Shape or Pan

Press the mixture into a greased loaf pan OR shape it into a loaf by hand and place it on a lightly greased baking sheet.

Step 4: Bake

Bake for 45–60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
For a sweet and tangy glaze, spread extra ketchup on top during the last 10 minutes of baking.

Step 5: Rest & Serve

Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps it set and stay juicy.
Serve warm with mashed potatoes, green beans, or your favorite comfort sides.

Tips for Meatloaf Success

Flavor Swap – Try different Stove Top Stuffing flavors like Savory Herb or Chicken.
