There are fast-food recipes, healthy recipes 💚, dessert recipes, elegant recipes, and every day recipes which we like to call “comfort foods”.
 
As a passionate home cook 👩‍🍳, I enjoy creating recipes and push myself to excel in all categories using different ingredients, techniques and flavors. This is so much fun for me! There’s such great personal satisfaction when I create a recipe mixing herbs, spices and ingredients and obtain delicious end results with a “new” dish.
 
Nonetheless, I also enjoy making recipes that aren’t fancy or complicated. Recipes that we grew up with that we call “comfort foods”. Depending on where we’re from and what our parents 👵👴 served us, these are our every day recipes.
 
In North America, who didn’t grow up eating meatloaf? This dish is popular in the United States as well as in Canada but interestingly enough, it’s also common in many other countries worldwide. Everyone likes to call theirs the “best” 🏆🥇 meatloaf ever and we all add our own list of special ingredients that makes them unique.
 
My Beef Meatloaf is like most Canadian 🍁 recipes except I add a couple of ingredients that differ from the rest. Besides using my own onion soup mix simply because that’s the way I am (if I can make it at home, why buy it?), I use Turkish oregano and chipotle chili powder. Another key ingredient that actually keeps the meat moist and juicy is cream of tomato soup. It protects the top from getting dry plus moistens the meat while baking.
 
I could have posted this recipe in Club Foody’s early years but I didn’t because I thought it was too “pedestrian” to share with you. The reason why I’m sharing my Beef Meatloaf now is because David insisted I publish it. As hard as it is to believe, this is one of David’s favorite comfort food recipes that he really enjoys. When we spent over a month in the Palm Springs area last October, he made a special request for this dish along with mixed mashed potatoes 🥔🍠 and steamed green beans! Men can be hard to understand sometimes!
 
This Beef Meatloaf recipe is easy to make with terrific flavor. This is “comfort food” 🥰 at its best and everyone in your family will love it even when you’re vacationing somewhere!
Bon Appétit!🍽
