I create this new meatloaf recipe with the power of French onion. It's filled with diced red onion sauteed in steak sauce and mixed with brown sugar and French onion dip. It's so delicious and even good in sandwiches.

How To Make french onion meatloaf

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat an 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • 2
    Melt the margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced red onion and saute for 7 minutes until tender. Stir in the steak sauce/brown sugar mixture and simmer for 3 minutes. Set aside.
  • 3
    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, dry onion soup mix, steak seasoning and 3/4 cup French onion dip; mix together until blended.
  • 4
    In a small bowl, whisk the cream cheese and remaining French onion dip together until combined and set aside.
  • 5
    Transfer the meat mixture to a piece of waxed paper and flatten to a 1/2-inch thick rectangle.
  • 6
    Spread the French onion dip mixture in the center of the meat rectangle. Add the sauteed onions over the filling and top with the white American cheese slices, leaving a bit of space at one end for easier rolling and sealing.
  • 7
    Pick up the edge of the waxed paper to roll the flattened meat into a log around the filling. Seal the ends and seam and place the loaf into a loaf pan.
  • 8
    Bake in the preheated oven about 35 minutes. Let stand for 6 minutes before slicing.
