Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2: Prepare the Stuffing Mix

In a large bowl, combine the Stove Top stuffing mix with 1/2 cup of water and 1/2 cup of milk. Stir and let it sit for 5 minutes to absorb the liquid.

Step 3: Mix the Meatloaf Ingredients

Add the ground beef, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the stuffing mixture. Mix everything together using a spoon or your hands until well combined.

Step 4: Shape the Meatloaf

Transfer the mixture to the greased loaf pan and shape it evenly. Press down gently to form a firm loaf.

Step 5: Add the Ketchup Topping

Spread 1/2 cup of ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf for a delicious glaze.

Step 6: Bake the Meatloaf

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 7: Let it Rest & Serve

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute, making the meatloaf extra juicy.
