Meatloaf with Sour Cream Sauce

Ingredients

• 2 pounds ground beef
• 1 (8 ounce) package sour cream and onion dip, divided
• 1 3/4 cups bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 pinch pepper
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 (10.75 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, 1/2 cup of the onion dip, bread crumbs, celery, onion, dill, salt, pepper and eggs. Use your hands to mix until well blended. Press into a 9×5 inch loaf pan, or form a loaf and place it in a 9×13 inch baking dish.

Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until the internal temperature of the loaf is 160 degrees F (72 degrees C).

While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the remaining onion dip and cream of mushroom soup. Cook, stirring until heated through. Spoon over servings of meatloaf.
