The Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make Stove Top Stuffing Meatloaf (the exact measurements and full recipe instructions are below in the easy to print recipe card):
Ground beef – it’s best to use the leanest cut of ground beef you can, such as 85/15 or 90/10.
Stove Top Stuffing mix – we used turkey flavor because that’s what was in the pantry, but you can use any flavor you like.
Eggs – we used large eggs.
Ketchup – basic ketchup is a perfect glaze for the meatloaf.
How to Make Stove Top Stuffing Meatloaf
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13″ baking pan or dish with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and water together until well combined. Add the stuffing mix, ground beef, and 1/4 cup of ketchup. Use your hands to mix the ingredients together until well combined.
Transfer the meat to the baking dish and shape the meat into a loaf.
Brush the meatloaf evenly with the remaining 1/4 cup of ketchup.
Bake at 350°F for 55 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes then slice and serve.
What to Serve with Meatloaf
Potatoes – mashed potatoes are the most perfect accompaniment with meatloaf, but other potatoes side dishes work well too. Try baked potatoes, scalloped potatoes, or even sweet potatoes.
Veggies – green beans, peas, and carrots are really delicious with this easy meatloaf.
Salad – a tossed green salad and dressing pairs well with the meatloaf dinner.
Bread – slide and serve some fresh bread with butter.
How to Store Leftover Meatloaf
Keep the leftover meatloaf in an airtight food storage container. Refrigerate for up to three days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave.

Love this recipe.i also make it in cupcake pan or make meatballs for spaghetti. It’s a hit here.
Thanks Lori!
I sometimes replace the ketchup with BBQ sauce. Gives it a different twist.
Great substitution Cathy. Thanks!
I used cornbread stuffing a little celery onion and garlic powder and wirh the ketchup a little dijon mustard. Smoked on grill for 25 minutes then finished cooking on grill. Delicios
Thanks Deb!
I am beside myself. I’m not a good cook. I tried tp make meatloaf before and failed. I’m 75 and really want easy recipes. These 4 ingredients won’t be bad for my 3 large dogs either. My whole family, my 3 dogs and I had a wonderful, tasty meal tonight, thanks to you. God Bless
This is so great to hear Vicki! So glad everyone enjoyed it. Thank you!
Easy, fast and yummy! I add green peppers to the top. It add a nice presentation.
Thank you Suzanne!
can you use a onion with the stove top meatloaf recipe
Hi John. Yes, diced onion would be a great addition!
I bet this recipe would make awesome meatballs!
Great idea Nancy! Let us know if you try it.
This is the best meatloaf recipe I’ve ever tried. It’s my go-to recipe. I’m making it for dinner tonight but using ground turkey.
Thank you Debbie!
I make this often. But I add a wrinkle – I bake in a muffin pan so I can individually freeze portions for later.
That’s a great idea Bill. Thanks!
I have made this meatloaf several times and have been so impressed with the outcome and taste awesome. I mixed half hamburger half sage sausage and used the savory herbs stuffing with excellent results …Thank you for sharing such a quick and simple recipe.
Thank you Torri!
Do you need to ground the Stove Top Stuffing like in a food processor or just throw it in the bowl like it comes out of the box?
Hi Sally. You can just use it as it comes out of the box.
Added just a little garlic and onion powder to this easy, delicious recipe. Thank you
Thanks Mary!
The only thing I did differently was make 2 loaves from it, and placed them both into a 9×12 glass baking dish. They were delicious!
Thanks Dee!
I don’t like mixing food with my hands when I have nail polish on but I did it anyway. Hopefully we didn’t eat any bits of polish. That being said, the meatloaf was fantastic! I’ll alternate this one with my basic meatloaf so we won’t get sick of it. I make meatloaves often these days.
I use disposable rubber gloves
That’s why I keep a box of disposable medical gloves in my kitchen. I use for when handling raw meat.
If, after mixing ingredients together, I wanted to freeze 1/2, should I cook first? Or freeze raw ingredients?
Hi Kathy. Really, you could do either and have good results in baking or reheating.
This turned out perfect!
I just wish you would share the nutrition information.
This is really good. I added a little mozzarella cheese on top and only used 1lb of beef for a smaller amount but kept everything else the same.
