Method (preview)

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 375 F. Grate onions (not too finely) into a large bowl.

2. 2

   Add tomato sauce, soup mix, grated garlic, oregano, pepper, and beaten eggs.

3. 3

   Mix together.

4. 4

   Add ground beef and bread crumbs to mixture.

5. 5

   Using your hands in a kneading motion, mix together, scooping up from the bottom and then pressing down on top, until just blended.

6. 6

   Overmixing will result in a tough meatloaf.

7. 7

   Spray a wide casserole dish with non-stick spray.

8. 8

   Form the meat mixture into a lump.

9. 9

   Place onto baking dish and form with hands into a nice loaf.

10. 10

    Pour tomato sauce on top until the loaf is well coated. (Don't drown the poor meatloaf, and try to get most of the sauce on the loaf and not around it.) Put baking dish in the middle of the oven and bake, at least 40 minutes, checking for doneness afterwards.

11. 11

    Optional - if you want to get fancy, saute some green peppers, mushrooms, and onions until firm-tender and then mix them into your raw meatloaf mixture before baking.
