Patti LaBelle Meatloaf Recipe

Patti LaBelle's meatloaf recipe is a delightful twist on a classic comfort food. With the addition of sharp cheddar cheese, onions, and green bell peppers, this meatloaf brings a rich and savory flavor to your dinner table.
Combine ground beef with Lipton onion soup mix, bread crumbs, and parsley for a perfectly seasoned loaf that stays moist and tender.
One key trick I’ve learned is to avoid overhandling the mixture to keep the meatloaf from becoming heavy.
I love this recipe because it's straightforward yet packed with flavor, making it perfect for any family dinner.
