How to Make Taco Meatloaf in a Slow Cooker
Aunt Lou here.
Cris and I were brainstorming ideas for new recipes the other day when she asked me if I had done a Crock Pot Taco Meatloaf yet (with well over a thousand recipes on the site, sometimes we have to check and see if we have made something before! lol). Surprisingly, I have not! I was actually kind of floored that I have not done it yet! I am so glad Cris thought of it!
This recipe is sure to cause a stir in your house from start to finish! While I was making it, both Ryder and Iyla came in asking me what I was making and saying, “That smells GOOD Mom!” They couldn’t wait to try it out for themselves either!
I made this in my casserole crock pot, but if you do not have a casserole crock pot, you can make this in a 6 quart crock pot. This makes enough for around 8 servings. If you don’t want the leftovers, you could easily half this recipe and use a 4 quart crock pot with similar cooking times.
Any time you are cooking meat, whether in a crock pot, oven, instant pot, grill or however you are cooking the meat, it is imperative to use a meat thermometer. Using a meat thermometer will let you know for sure that your meat is cooked to a safe temperature and can keep your meat from being overcooked.
When it comes to toppings for your meatloaf, it is perfect to personalize to each person’s taste. Looking for some ideas? How about salsa, sour cream, shredded taco blend cheese or taco sauce! What would be your “must have” topping on this delicious meatloaf?
