Assembly Directions:
Put ground beef, rolled oats, onion, salt, garlic
powder, eggs and ketchup in a large bowl. Mix
together well with your hands. Meatloaf: go on to
freezing directions.
Meatballs: Form meatballs with your hands or a small
cookie scoop. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with foil
for easy clean-up. Put the raw meatballs on the
baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-30 minutes,
until lightly browned and no longer pink in the
center. Cool.
Freezing Directions:
Meatloaf: Put the meat mixture in a gallon freezer
bag. Seal, label and freeze.
Meatballs: Package the cooled meatballs in the
appropriate size freezer bag(s) or rigid container(s)
based on your family size. Seal, label and freeze.
Serving Directions:
Meatloaf: Thaw at least overnight in the
refrigerator. Dump the meat mixture into a loaf pan
and pack it down with your hand. Bake at 350 degrees
for 1 hour or until no pink shows in the center of
the loaf. After removing it from the oven, let the
loaf sit for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Meatballs: Thaw at least overnight in the
refrigerator. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-20 minutes
until hot. You could reheat them in a skillet, but
they will be more likely to fall apart that way.
Tammy’s Comments:
This recipe is from the Freezer Cooking Manual, and
is a crowd pleaser! Even people who don’t like
meatloaf like this recipe!
