Double-Quick Meat Loaf And Gravy Duet - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lb. ground beef
1 (1 1/2 oz.) packet dehydrated onion soup mix

Heat oven to 350\u00b0 (moderate).

As this loaf bakes, the meat juices combine with the mushroom soup to make a wonderful brown gravy to serve over rice, noodles or potatoes.
