Easy Stovetop Stuffing Meatloaf with Garlic Butter Sauce
Meatloaf with stuffing gives you tons of flavor and provides binding for the meat. It's packed with flavor while still being easy to make.
Ingredients
For the Meatloaf
- ¾ C milk
- 1 pkg stovetop stuffing mix
- ½ lb ground beef

- 2 eggs
- ¾ C parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the Garlic Butter Sauce
- ½ C butter
- 6-8 garlic cloves diced

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- Combine the milk and the stuffing in a medium bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes to soak.

Notes
Don't overmix your meatloaf! This will make it tough and dry.
Use whatever flavor of stuffing you like! I loved the chicken, but feel free to try pork, turkey, cornbread, or herb.
