View all articles by Jefferson AdamsWhen I was growing up, meatloaf was one of the dishes that made a regular appearance at our table. The rich, tomato-based sauce complimented the meatloaf, and was sure to bring smiles to the family table.
Taking a meatloaf sandwich to school the next day was something of a rite of passage, and a delicious one at that.
Here's a simple recipe for a meatloaf that is easy to make, easy on the wallet, and sure to please kids and adults alike.
Ingredients:
- 1½ pounds ground beef
- 1 egg
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup dried gluten-free bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free mustard (I use Annie's, made with apple cider vinegar)
- ½ cup ketchup
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Note: To make the bread crumbs, I like to toast up any older Udi's gluten-free bread that may still be in my fridge.
In a large bowl, combine the beef, egg, onion, milk and gluten-free bread OR gluten-free cracker crumbs.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and place in a lightly greased 5x9 inch loaf pan.
In a separate small bowl, combine the brown sugar, mustard and ketchup. Mix well and pour over the meatloaf.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour.
I like to serve it with roasted vegetables, fresh salad and toasted gluten-free bread with butter. However, mashed potatoes and gluten-free gravy make a nice side as well.

11 Jun 2012 7:17:58 AM PDT Good recipe! Even less expensive is to use crushed Chex cereal instead of gluten-free bread crumbs. I substitute a mix of crushed rice & corn Chex for bread crumbs for meatloaf, stuffing, baked chicken, and other recipes.

11 Jun 2012 11:15:39 PM PDT I use "Baken-its" brand pork skins, crumbled up, instead of the gluten-free bread or bread crumbs. The hot ones are spicier. No gluten in it. Good taste. Some people who are gluten intolerant are sensitive to milk, so I would leave it out.

27 Apr 2013 10:25:53 PM PDT I followed the instructions exactly, except for using mustard. I've never made a meatloaf before. It turned out amazing, I was surprised. It tasted really good too. Thank you so much. I made this for my girlfriend who is gluten-free, and she liked it too.
