Mouth-Watering RITZ Cracker Meatloaf

Step 1

Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, and peppers; cook until onions are tender and translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for a remaining 20 seconds. Allow veggies to cool veggies.

Step 2

In a small bowl, add crushed RITZ Crackers, and milk. Allow the crackers to absorb the milk.

Step 3

In a large bowl, add the meat, cooled veggies, cracker mixture, Worchestshire sauce, eggs, Dijon mustard, and spices. Mix until just combined.

Step 4

Line your baking dish with foil with the dull side up

Step 5

Add the meat loaf mixture to the center of the foil-lined pan. Form the mixture into a loaf, and then wrap foil around the meatloaf keeping the top uncovered.

Step 6

In a medium dish, mix the ketchup, red pepper, and brown sugar. Add half the mixture to the raw meatloaf.

Step 7

Place in the oven, and bake at 375°F. and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove meatloaf and coat the top of it with the remaining sauce.

Step 8

Bake for an additional 30 minutes.

Step 9

Remove meatloaf from the pan and transfer it to a serving dish. This does have a lot of excess grease at the bottom of the pan. You can also form the meatloaf over white bread slices to absorb grease.

Step 10

Allow the loaf to rest for ten minutes. Slice and enjoy!
