Better Homes And Gardens Recipe For Meatloaf

Mike Garten

Ground beef mixed with balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, onion and parsley creates a kicked-up meatloaf recipe that will be your family's new go-to. The secret to moist meatloaf? A generous amount of meatloaf glaze brushed over the loaf before baking, of course! This soy-glazed meatloaf is doused in a delicious mixture of ketchup, brown sugar and— you guessed it— umami-rich soy sauce. Made from a fermented paste of soybeans and roasted grains, this Chinese condiment lends an earthy, salty taste to everything it touches.

Got allergies to soy? You've got options. Try gluten-free tamari, which is often made without wheat, and is thicker, darker, and milder in flavor. Coconut aminos, a slightly sweeter sauce made from coconut tree sap and salt, makes a great paleo-friendly pick.
