Easy Stuffing Meatloaf

My favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner isn't the turkey or the mashed potatoes or the green bean casserole, but the stuffing. I looooove the stuffing. My mom makes an amazing version with sausage that I'm just obsessed with, so I figured any sort of meat in stuffing mix would probably be delicious. That's why I decided to try out this meatloaf recipe.

Having Stove Top Stuffing in April isn't really my thing, but when it's in meatloaf I can definitely let it slide. The stuffing takes the place of breadcrumbs that are usually in traditional meatloaf, but the stuffing makes it really moist and flavorful. My favorite is the ketchup on top that becomes extra delicious after baking. This is a recipe for the whole family. Enjoy!
