About Meatloaf
Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that originated in Europe and became a staple of American cuisine. Traditionally, it is made by combining ground beef, pork, or turkey with breadcrumbs, eggs, and seasonings, then shaping the mixture into a loaf and baking. Variations may include additions like onions, garlic, herbs, or vegetables, and it is often topped with a tomato-based sauce or ketchup glaze. Meatloaf is protein-rich, providing essential amino acids, and can be adapted with lean meats and whole-grain breadcrumbs for a healthier option. However, it may be high in saturated fats and sodium, depending on the fat content of the meat used and the seasoning choices. Pairing meatloaf with nutrient-dense side dishes like steamed vegetables or sweet potatoes can help balance its nutritional profile while maintaining its hearty appeal.
