Notes
For added moisture, consider incorporating finely chopped vegetables, such as bell peppers or carrots, into the meatloaf mixture. Use lean ground beef or substitute with ground turkey for a healthier version. Adjust the seasoning to your liking; you can add more ranch seasoning for extra flavor or experiment with spices like paprika or garlic powder.
