  6. Brush meat loaves with ketchup mixture. Return to oven for 4 to 8 minutes or until meat loaves are cooked through to internal temperature of 160° F..
  7. Garnish with chopped scallion greens before serving.

Helpful hints

  • Loaves can also be cooked in individual loaf pans.
  • If no salt added ketchup is unavailable at your local grocery store consider ordering it online.
  • Double the recipe to make extra to freeze for a quick dish later.
