Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 2/3 cup milk
- 32 Ritz crackers, crushed
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 4 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
Optional for Topping:
1/4 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that your meatloaf is ready to go as soon as the preparation is complete.
Step 2: Prepare the Cracker Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the 2 eggs and 2/3 cup milk. Whisk them together until well mixed. Then, add the crushed Ritz crackers to the bowl. These crackers will provide a light, airy texture and absorb the juices, keeping the meatloaf moist. Stir the mixture well to ensure that the crackers are fully soaked in the egg and milk mixture.
Step 3: Add Cheese and Onions
Add 1/2 cup of chopped onion and 4 ounces of shredded sharp cheddar cheese to the mixture. The onions will add a subtle sweetness and crunch, while the cheese contributes a creamy, tangy flavor that complements the meat. Stir until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
