Mac and Cheese Meatloaf Casserole

 

 

Ingredients:

1 cup ketchup
1 cup Sweet Baby Ray’s Hickory & Brown Sugar barbecue sauce
2 lbs lean ground beef
30 Ritz Crackers
2 oz Lipton onion soup mix
2 eggs
3 cups macaroni noodles
2 cups milk
10.5 oz condensed cheddar cheese soup
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
4 cups shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a small bowl, combine ketchup and barbecue sauce. Set aside.
In a large bowl, blend ground beef, crushed Ritz Crackers, onion soup mix, and eggs.
Add half of the ketchup-barbecue sauce mixture to the beef and mix thoroughly.
Transfer the beef mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
Spread the remaining sauce over the top.
Bake for 30 minutes.
While the meatloaf bakes, cook the macaroni noodles and drain.
In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, cheddar soup, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth.
Stir the noodles into the sauce, then add 2 cups of shredded cheese and mix.
Once the meatloaf is done, spread the noodle mixture over it and top with the remaining cheese.
Bake for an additional 17-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden.
Let it rest before serving.
