Meatloaf Patty Melts are the best meatloaf sandwiches you can ever try. (I never was a big fan of cold meatloaf on white bread anyway.) Just like a good patty melt, this gets a little messy. Dip it in ketchup and go for it!

Ingredients:

6 slices of leftover meatloaf

1 yellow onion, sliced

2 Tbsp of vegetable oil

salt and pepper to taste

12 slices of swiss cheese

12 slices of seeded rye bread

Ketchup for dipping

In a large skillet, heat oil. Add onions and cook until they are tender and start to brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

In the same skillet, place slices of meatloaf and fry until brown on each side. Remove from heat and set aside.

Butter one side of each slice of bread. Place, butter side down, onto a hot skillet. Layer cheese, meat, onions and a second piece of cheese. Top with another slice of bread and cook, flipping once, until cheese is melted and bread is crisp.

Slice in half and serve with ketchup as a dipping sauce.

Meatloaf is something we all grew up having for dinner. My grandmother made it with crushed up Saltine crackers instead of Panko breadcrumbs. Enjoy this basic recipe and look for fun rollover meals the next few days!

Ingredients:

2 lbs of ground beef

2 cups of Panko breadcrumbs

3 eggs

1 cup of milk

2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce

2 Tbsp of dried parsley

1 medium yellow onion, diced

1- 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes, drained

2 Tbsp of vegetable oil

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup of ketchup

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large skillet over medium heat, saute onion in oil until tender. Add drained canned tomatoes and continue to cook for 3 more minutes. Removoe from heat and set aside to cool.

In a large mixing bowl, add ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper and parsley. Combine gently, careful not to over-work the meat as it could become tough and dense. Add cooled onion and tomatoes. Combine.

Prepare two greased loaf pans and divide mixture evenly. Press down gently to form an even top surface. Spread ketchup over the top.

Bake for 35 minutes. Let rest before slicing.
