This easy meatloaf recipe is the best thing since sliced bread (Oh crap, that's bad now!! Forgot about carbs). Oh, well. It's still an amazing quick and easy dinner recipe for busy weeknight meals. The boxed stuffing makes all the difference!

Ingredients
1boxStove Top Stuffing(any flavor)
1poundground beef
2eggs
1/2cupketchup(or more if you'd like)
1/2cupwater(or a little more if your beef is super lean)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a bread loaf pan.
In a large bowl, mix together the dry stuffing mix, ground beef, eggs, water and HALF of the ketchup.
Fill the prepared pan with your mixture and use your hands to evenly squish it down into the pan.
Top it with the remaining ketchup and spread it evenly over the top. You can also use BBQ sauce, chili sauce, or a combination of sauces.
Bake for 45-60 minutes (it takes about 50 minutes in my oven).
Enjoy! I'd wait a few minutes before slicing it up. Serve with mashed potatoes, veggies, salad, or anything thing else you'd like.
Notes
Add anything else to the mixture that you happen to have on hand like chopped onions, garlic, cheese, spices, herbs, etc. This is the base recipe, and really all you need, but there's no harm in making it your way.
