I made THE BEST crockpot meatloaf tonight. . .recipe inside
DH couldn't stop talking about it!!!
I made some substitutes- I marked in bold
SLOW COOKER MEATLOAF
2 pounds ground beef I used meatloaf mix
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 sleeve saltine crackers, crushed - I used triscuits
¾ cup ketchup + extra for top
1 cup chopped onion I used frozen
1 cup chopped bell pepper I used frozen mixed & chopped in chpper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 package onion soup mix I made my own b/c DH can't have the packets, it has sugar in it
½ cup milk I also completely forgot about this ingredient, until I just saw it now LOL
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce I left this out b/c I had none
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and mix to combine. Spray a slow cooker with cooking spray or line with disposable liner, and place meat mixture inside forming a loaf (this will not be touching the sides of the pot).
Cover generously with ketchup and cook on low setting for about 8 hours.
You may add potatoes, carrots and onions, by tossing them with ¼ cup olive oil and seasoning salt, if desired. I used sweet potatoes & just carrots, with EVOO & seasoning salt
IT WAS SO FREAKIN GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oooh, can you tell me how you made your own onion soup mix?
I can't have it bc it has MSG in it and I get killer migraines. But so many recipes call for it.

I thought you always need some kind of liquid in a crock pot, otherwise it burns... was the juice from the meat enough?

it didn't burn, I assume b/c meatloaf mix is pretty fatty, there was enough there. PLUS the EVOO from the potatoes & carrots. I wouldn't make it without the milk again just to be safe.

I did this one:
* 8 teaspoons dried onion flakes * 1 1/2 teaspoons dried parsley * 1 teaspoon onion powder * 1 teaspoon turmeric didn't have this one but substituted with dry mustard * 1/2 teaspoon celery seed * 1/2 teaspoon salt * 1/2 teaspoon sugar * 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

Re: I made THE BEST crockpot meatloaf tonight. . .recipe inside
I made this! Well, I changed a few little things but DH LOVED IT! THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this. I never knew you could put raw ground beef in the crockpot. I've only seen recipes for beef precooked. Thanks again!

Re: I made THE BEST crockpot meatloaf tonight. . .recipe inside
Made it tonight. DH loved it and can't believe I never tried meatloaf in the CP before. Now I want to try my recipe next time in it!
BTW, I never make a 2lb meatloaf, so i used 1pm lean chopped meat, 1pm lean ground chicken & you would never have noticed.
