While looking for this classic meatloaf recipe from the 1950′s I actually found a variety of recipes for meatloaf made from Lipton’s Onion soup mix.

This is the original Lipton Soup Meatloaf Recipe

In a large bowl combine all ingredients and mix together with your hands until all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Don’t overwork the mixture. Place meat mixture into a glass baking dish (loaf size) and bake for 1 hour. Let stand for 5 minutes and cut into 8 equal servings.

This third variation is the most complex but also a great taste treat.

Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 package dry Lipton’s Onion Soup mix
1/2 cup milk
1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste, divided use
2 to 4 strips bacon, cut in half (optional)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine ground beef, pork sausage, eggs, bread crumbs, garlic, sweet onion, bell pepper, oregano, kosher salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, onion soup mix, milk, and half of the tomato paste. Gently mix only until combined. Do not overwork the meat or it will become tough. Form into a loaf.
• Cover with the remaining half can of tomato paste.
• Weave the bacon strips over the top.
• Bake 1 hour. Let meatloaf rest 15 minutes before cutting to serve.
