BEST EVER MEATLOAF RECIPE | With the Tastiest Glaze!

How do you guys feel about turkey meatloaf? Should I add a recipe for that in the future as well? Let me know! xo - Lisa

[@dreamchaser7603]

I love it!! More recipes like this, please!!

Yes please ! 💕

Oh, this is so nostalgic! My husband had three specialties: pot roast, Bolognaise sauce, and meat loaf. It's as if you had watched him make it! No one else we knew used oats, and I think they give it such a lovely open texture. Catsup & Worcestershire sauce, perfect. His secret, though, was his 'kitchen sink' additions. A couple of lonely mushrooms? A grated carrot? Half a red pepper forgotten in the veg drawer? But the most memorable was the night he tossed in some leftover crushed pineapple - it was absolutely, surprisingly, delicious. Thanks, Lisa!

[@positivemanda]

You're awesome.

[@anitas5817]

Oats work perfectly! I have used rolled oats for years but now I whiz them in the food processor to make oat crumbs for a finer texture. Half ground beef and half ground turkey works great too.

[@GreenLeafBall]

we made a half batch for the two of us tonight, and we are it all!!!! amazing! and now it is on our constant rotation. thank you!

[@johnjakeup13]

Thanks! Keep the healthy videos coming

[@Downshiftology]

Thanks for all your support!

[@cynthiabujold2225]

Hi Lisa! I made this last evening for dinner. I haven’t made meat loaf for years. I like to eat a primarily vegetarian diet but my husband was recently diagnosed with low iron so, in addition to supplementation, I’ve been using red meat again, occasionally. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. My husband and adult daughter’s reactions made my day. I own your cookbook, have been a subscriber to your videos for quite a while and really enjoy your presentation and content. I can always be sure things will turn out just as they’re supposed to. Thanks for the inspiration and keep up the great work!

[@Downshiftology]

Wonderful! I'm glad this meatloaf recipe was a hit with your family 😀

[@B_Bodziak]

Always a good idea to eat leafy greens alongside beef if looking for better iron absorption

[@rentiamuire5301]

I made meatballs with this recipe, just added a finely diced carrot - 15 minutes at 180°C in the airfryer in two batches. This truly is the best ever recipe! Thank you so much!

[@Downshiftology]

Glad this recipe turned out great as meatballs!

[@denises9426]

I use half ground beef and half ground pork to keep it moist. Love this recipe. ❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@cherylwilliams8048]

I agree; If you don’t use at least two different meats, it’s beef loaf not meat loaf. A glorified hamburger. 😅😅

[@susantrail3507]

I was just wishing I had a better meatloaf recipe and you came to my rescue (again)! I always know I am going to love your recipes! Thanks Lisa.

[@Downshiftology]

What perfect timing! Hope you enjoy this recipe.

[@mesrowe]

Ok hands down, one of the best meatloaf recipes around! Family and I loved how fluffy and flavorful it turned out! Yummmm! The sauce was tasty as well! Thank you!

[@Downshiftology]

Yay, so thrilled you loved it!

[@soozieq8662]

Thank you for sharing your recipes! They have truly been a blessing for a mom who has a daughter who, all of a sudden, can’t tolerate gluten or dairy anymore. ❤

[@kathleenkolb3316]

I have made many of your recipes in the past couple years. The Tuscan chicken is in my rotation, so delicious, and the garlic pork tenderloin amazing, just to name a few. Looking forward to making this meatloaf. Have not made a good one in a long time. I do make Turkey meatballs all the time and they are so good. I’m sure your turkey meatloaf will be outstanding. Thanks for all your recipes and your book, love your videos.

[@Downshiftology]

Thanks for following along Kathleen! 😀 Hope you enjoy this meatloaf recipe.

[@veganhomeschoolmom]

Thank you so much for this recipe. I've been looking for a straightforward meatloaf recipe. I think this one will be perfect for my family.

[@Downshiftology]

Hope you enjoy this recipe!

[@korinna280]

What a great and different recipe. Thank you! Now waiting for your turkey meatloaf.

[@amandagraham2685]

Very similar to my base recipe for meatloaf but I like the addition of parsley and Worcestershire sauce and that glaze. Can’t wait to try this out!

[@JoyceKemp-t8g]

1:42 Your recipe is great Lisa. Here in Canada we make it the same way but my mom used breadcrumbs. I love the oats,and I make this recipe all the time now. Thank you😊

[@B_Bodziak]

Try adding 2-3 crushed beef bouillon cubes OR two packs of Lipton beefy onion soup mix

[@onnasilvas4664]

Thank you for the recipe! I has planned on making Salisbury steaks but got a bit sleepy as the day went on and this meatloaf recipe saved the night!

[@Downshiftology]

So glad this worked out for you! 😁

[@Waltkat]

I haven't made meat loaf in years, I'll have to try this recipe. I used to stuff the inside with some pepperjack cheese so that it melts inside during baking. Great stuff.

[@mariacasella6474]

Meatloaf is such a favorite in our house,my husband loves to make meatloaf sandwiches the next day too-I’ve always used bread crumbs so using oats will be a nice change,definitely going to make this😋thank you Lisa!!!adding this to my menu ❤

[@Downshiftology]

Let me know how you like this version!

[@mariacasella6474]

I watched it at 7:30 ca time and it makes me so hungry, I gonna make it during the week. Thank you dear.

[@marthacalleros532]

@downshiftology I never get tired of making this recipe, it’s absolutely and positively delicious 😋😋😋

[@lissethn2439]

Instead of oatmeal I use cooked quinoa and my family totally loves it. Thanks for the recipe.

[@mimiscountrycooking1607]

Great tip❤

[@latmcb9863]

Great idea!

[@Downshiftology]

Oh good to know! Thanks for sharing.

[@inbark7809]

Great idea! How much quinoa do you add for two pounds of meat?

[@cathyphegley7848]

Thank you for this simple delicious recipe! I had to chuckle when you brought out the ruler! 🤣 I have to tell you though Lisa-every time you bring out your pristine white baking dishes I’m screaming at the screen…..PARCHMENT PAPER! 😂 I added steak sauce instead of ketchup just for a twist. Love your cookbook girl!💕

[@Downshiftology]

Hahah, I find that it's okay without parchment paper, but you do you! 😀

[@AnnaAnnaTT]

thank you for your YES (it is) "Best Ever Meatloaf" Not only is your recipe outstanding - It has also changed how I cook it. And your way is the best. Purchased the instant oats - something that has not previously entered my pantry. Assembled all the other ingredients. And I cooked it at the temperature you provided For the time you recommended. PS, : I will never again cook at the higher temperature I used to use _ your temperature and time to cook AND resting it resulted in a lovely outcome

[@lovesweetlove1993]

❤ warm up the house with this comfort food 😋 Happy New Year, Lisa! 🥂🎉

[@Downshiftology]

This is comfort food at its finest!!

[@georgiaanderson4483]

I also add chopper celery and chopped red pepper. I love your recipe. 😊

[@ChiliPepperMadness]

Super simple, and looks delicious!

[@Angie-qo6up]

Thanks for this! My daughter has celiac but loves meatloaf. Now, I can make this for her!

[@hollysailors2303]

I have always used oats in my meatloaf but I cook it in my stoneware mini loaf pans. Also I usually add straight up tomato sauce for the top but I'm tempted to try your glaze on it !

[@Downshiftology]

Do let me know how you end up liking the glaze!

[@glorimarperez5819]

I just love your recipes and meatloaf is my husband's favorite dinner. I do need a healthier turkey version as I'm trying to add healthier proteins to my meals. Thank you!!!

[@stephanie5471]

Looks delish! Will definitely add this to my dinner rotation! 😋

Can't wait to see how your meatloaf turns out 😋

[@alissacaputo4969]

Thank you so much !! love everything you did !! Can't wait to try it !!

[@cydkriletich6538]

Thank you for this recipe. It’s very similar to my late mother’s recipe, which my husband loved. I never really got her recipe from her, and when she passed at the age of 97 in 2019, my hubby and I figured we’d never have mom’s delicious meatloaf again. Now I can surprise my husband with this recipe, which looks delish and so much like my dear mother’s recipe. 💕

[@Downshiftology]

Hopefully this recipe resembles her recipe 😀

[@cydkriletich6538]

@@Downshiftology yes! Let’s hope. And I’ll find out next Monday when I make it!

[@lakliams]

Every time i hear someone talk about meatloaf or a video pops up with meatloaf recipe i immediately delete it. It's just something that makes me🤮 BUT when i saw the notification coming from you, i hesitated, i thought if it comes from her she must do something different thatn everyone else, she usually swaps ingredients for better ones, so i watched it. I need to try this now! Thank you!

[@Downshiftology]

I hope you love this version!! 😀

[@NeferLioness]

OMGOODNESS!!! I was looking for a meatloaf recipe from you!! I'm looking forward to trying this one. I eat paleo: any other suggestions for oat alternatives??

[@morajones7900]

Made this tonight and it was delicious. My husband does not like onions and the onions came out a bit crunchy. Can I sauté them before adding them to the meatloaf?

[@Downshiftology]

You can give it a light saute!

[@Thisday2564]

Your cousin M told me about your channel, love it! Subscribed and following. Great job and well done! PS I wear gloves when making meatloaf bc once I had a hangnail and bacteria got in.

[@Downshiftology]

Welcome to the Downshiftology community! Hope you enjoy this recipe 😀

[@Lili-xq9sn]

Wow. Thanks for telling us!

[@susangaida321]

It should be removed from the baking pan immediately then let it rest or should I rest it in the baking dish with oozing grease? I don't know? Thanks Lisa!!!

[@Downshiftology]

You can do either or!

[@haadbajwa7565]

Excellent recipe and well explained. 🥩

Love this Lisa ♥️. I have been looking forward to this recipe! Can you please share your red polish colour? It looks stunning on you!

[@anitah.7906]

I do a very similar meatloaf however I put the onion and the garlic in a blender with the smallest amount of water & blend. No crunchy pieces of onion or no need to sautee. Just the way my mom taught me :)

[@Downshiftology]

Great idea! Thanks for sharing 😀

THANKS FOR GREAT RECIPE-VERY CLOSE TO MY MOM'S & GRANDMOTHERS!!! ENJOYED VIDEO!

[@Patriot_Lady1776]

Great recipe! Can you also do a recipe for ground chicken or turkey?

[@Downshiftology]

I'd say ground turkey is okay, but the flavor will be a bit more mild.

[@ljezebel1]

Thank you!!! This looks so good! Making this tomorrow!!! ❤

A turkey meatloaf is next on my list!

[@B_Bodziak]

If you use turkey, I don't recommend ground turkey breast AND I suggest adding 2-3 crushed beef bouillon cubes

[@EJIqpEP]

Did it first time in my life. Super easy and tasty. Difficult to do wrong. Btw if you have eggs intolerance you can just skip them. Still works fine.

[@nancyk777]

This looks delicious, I like the idea of using oatmeal instead of bread or breadcrumbs. May I ask where you got your casserole pan from? Thank you for the great videos and recipes!

[@herberkk]

I followed the recipe and it was delicious 😊

[@Downshiftology]

Wonderful! Glad it turned out perfectly 😀

[@4waystoyummy]

I like to use a large pan too...that way I can add some par boiled potatoes around the meatloaf.

[@Downshiftology]

Great idea!!

[@LookUpp-2024]

Perfect classic recipe

[@HonorEtVirtus]

Suggestion: For the glaze use Balsamic Vinegar instead of Worchestire Sauce. Include Red pepper flakes and a little yellow mustard. The smell is outstanding and tastes even better.

[@jamesprior2496]

Beautiful! Place a bay leaf under the loaf for added aroma!

[@Downshiftology]

Hope you enjoy this recipe!

[@Fox_sSspirit]

Ok so I made this but hear me out. I was so sick (monthly sickness) I barely followed the recipe here. It was more like a spirit guide. I added breadcrumbs and cracker bits instead of oats. I added whatever spices I had on hand. Used barbeque sauce as my glaze. I measured nothing. I didn't have worcestshire sauce - used gravy browning instead for colour. Even though I was basically a zombie and did my own thing, it came out good! I am quite impressed.

Hi there - I'm a bit confused with your question. This recipe uses all ground beef!

[@nancyesposito1020]

@@Downshiftology so sorry I don't know what happened with that message I was using talk to text. We use beef, veal, and pork. I just wasn't sure if I need to make any adjustments to the moisture or the amount of oats if not using beef? Thank you so much sorry for confusion!
