Slowcooker Meatloaf and Veggies

Ingredients:
3 lbs ground beef
2 eggs beaten
3 tablespoons ketchup
3 tablespoons steak seasoning
5 small potatoes cut into cubes
½ cup carrots cut into small pieces
½ cup string beans

Directions:

In a medium bowl, mix together the ground beef, eggs, 3 tablespoons ketchup, onion soup mix and steak seasoning using your hands. Put half the meatloaf into slowcooker, place half of veggies on top of meat, then place the remaining meat on top. Spread remaining ketchup over the top. Pour rest of the veggies around the meatloaf. Cover, and cook for 6 to 8 hours on Low, or 4 hours on High.

All together the meal was $15.29. We got 6 dinners out of the meal, so that is $2.55 a meal! And that was without any coupons. I like to keep lots of frozen veggies in freezer, just in case we need to make a meal.

Total Rating:……..…………….... 4 stars

This came out very good. Obvioulsy a little greasy from the meat, but I scooped out the meat and veggies with a pasta server and all was good. As we cut into it and scooped it out, the meat and veggies all mixed together and I kind of liked that. My DH ate it right up! Next time I'm going to try it with spinach, corn, and sweet potatoes.
