Ultimate Classic Meatloaf
  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Mix ground beef, 1/2 cup condensed tomato soup, onion soup mix, bread crumbs, and egg in a large bowl. Form into an 8x4-inch loaf; set it on a large, rimmed baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until the meatloaf is no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer in the center registers 160 degrees (70 degrees C), about 1 hour 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir together 2 tablespoons baking sheet drippings, the remaining tomato soup, and water in a saucepan over medium heat; cook until the mixture is hot and bubbling. Slice the meatloaf; serve with the sauce.
