    Lipton Souperior Meatloaf with Onion Soup Mix

    Lipton’s Onion Soup Mix is so popular that many consider it a pantry staple. This savory mix adds everything you love about French onion soup to your meatloaf. One packet provides a quick, convenient way to add “souperior” flavor to this dish – no need to chop onions.

    There’re so many delicious side dishes you can serve with meatloaf. Here‘s a list that you’ll find some great ideas.

    Ingredients for the Classic Lipton Onion Soup Meatloaf

    • Ground Beef: For the best flavor and texture, you’ll want to use ground beef with a ratio of 90/10. You want your loaf to be succulent, but not greasy. 90/10 or 85/15 beef is the sweet spot.
    • Lipton Onion Soup Mix: This versatile mix deserves a spot in every pantry. It’s all you need for a rich, flavorful loaf. These packets are available in most grocery stores or online. 
    • Eggs: It’s the key to a moist and juicy meatloaf. The ideal ratio is one egg per pound of ground beef.
    • Bread Crumbs: We used panko breadcrumbs, but any kind will do. To make your own, grind bread in a food processor and spread the crumbs in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes at 300ºF.
    • Ketchup: A traditional meatloaf isn’t complete without ketchup! Use your favorite brand of ketchup to add classic tomato flavor to this dish.

    Tips for the Moist Lipton Onion Soup Meatloaf

    • Avoid overmixing, as it can result in a tough meatloaf.
    • You can line your loaf pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
    • Press the meat mixture gently into the loaf pan so that it can hold its shape better.
    • Make sure to let your meatloaf rest for about 10 minutes before cutting. Otherwise it can fall apart easily.

    Is it Better to Cook Meatloaf Covered or Uncovered?

    For this recipe, we recommend leaving your meatloaf uncovered in the oven for a loaf that’s less likely to fall apart.

    What is the Best Meat for Lipton Meatloaf?

    We recommend using lean (90/10 or 85/15) ground beef for this recipe. Look for ground round or ground sirloin. If you like, you can substitute with ground turkey for this recipe.

    How Long to Cook Meatloaf?

    This meatloaf will be fully cooked in 45-50 minutes. Be sure to let it cool for ten minutes before slicing, to ensure the loaf holds its shape.

    Can I Freeze Lipton Onion Meatloaf?

    This meatloaf can be frozen and stored in the freezer for up to six months. Make it ahead of time for a hassle-free dinner on a busy weeknight.

        Hi Angela, meatloaf sauce is optional for serving. You can use any sauce you like or make your own by combining ketchup, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and vinegar. Izzy

      Great, easy recipe. We add chopped onion and diced green bell peppers sometimes.

      Ok, I made the sauce & poked holes in the meatloaf with my fingers, I poured the sauce in the holes & spooned the rest on top of the meatloaf. First I’d like to say that green peppers ruins a good meatloaf & also too many onions. I didn’t measure the sauce, I put the ketchup, br sugar, salt & pepper, I put a cpl TBL spoons worcershire sauce & put in on the meatloaf b4 baking, it is so yummy. I didn’t use vinegar. I didn’t measure anything but the worcershire sauce. I cook alot & don’t measure sometimes, when I’m baking I always measure! Thank you for the sauce idea

        Green bell peppers are absolutely necessary for good meartloaf. So, my point is everyone has different tastes. Maybe it ruins your meatloaf, but not mine.

      I have a similar recipe but mine uses 2 tbsp of mustard and a quarter cup tomato sauce plus some for brushing on the top to keep it moist during baking. Love this recipe and have shared it with my whole family.
