Big Mac Meatloaf

on


Big Mac Meatloaf is a delicious and fun twist on a classic dish. It is made with ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and a variety of other ingredients that give it the flavor of a Big Mac. The meatloaf is then baked in a loaf pan and topped with cheese and Thousand Island dressing.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 1 cup breadcrumbs

  • 2 eggs, beaten

  • 1/2 cup ketchup

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1/2 cup chopped onion

  • 1/2 cup chopped pickles

  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1/4 cup Thousand Island dressing

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, onion, and pickles. Mix well.

  3. Transfer meatloaf mixture to prepared loaf pan.

  4. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).

  5. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

  6. Top with cheese and Thousand Island dressing.

  7. Serve immediately.

Tips

  • For a spicier meatloaf, add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the mixture.

  • For a healthier meatloaf, use ground turkey or chicken instead of ground beef.

  • To make ahead, prepare the meatloaf mixture and bake it in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, remove from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).

Enjoy!

Here is a story about how I came up with the Big Mac Meatloaf recipe:

I was a big fan of Big Macs when I was growing up. I loved the combination of the beef, the bun, the special sauce, the pickles, and the cheese. So, one day, I decided to try to make a Big Mac-inspired meatloaf.

I started by mixing together ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, onion, and pickles. I then formed the mixture into a loaf and baked it in a loaf pan.

When the meatloaf was done, I topped it with cheese and Thousand Island dressing. And, just like that, I had created a Big Mac Meatloaf!

The Big Mac Meatloaf was a hit with my family and friends. They loved the combination of the flavors, and they couldn't believe that it was actually meatloaf.

If you're a fan of Big Macs, then you'll love the Big Mac Meatloaf. It's the perfect way to enjoy all the flavors of a Big Mac in a delicious and easy-to-make dish.
