What You’ll Need to Make Slow Cooker Meatloaf:
Ingredients:
- ground beef
- tomato soup
- cream of mushroom soup
- dry onion soup mix
- an egg
How to Make Slow Cooker Meatloaf:
Place meat, eggs, and onion soup mix in a large bowl.
*If you want to be sneaky, you can mix in a quarter cup of ground flax seed with the meat to sneak in Omega 3 and fiber!
Mix those ingredients together until they are combined. Try using your hands to mix – they work perfectly here!
After those ingredients are well-combined, shape the meat mixture into a loaf. Place your loaf in the bottom of your slow cooker.
Pour a can of cream of mushroom soup over the loaf. I spread mine around a bit with the can so that it is coating the top of the meatloaf.
Pour a can of tomato soup on top of everything!
Cover and cook the meatloaf on the low setting for 8 hours, or on the high setting for 4 hours.
And there you have it! An easy, no-nonsense, made-with-ingredients-you-have-in-your-pantry Slow Cooker Meatloaf! Bon appetit!
Serve with a side of green beans (could even just be canned green beans) and/or mashed potatoes and you are good to go! How’s that for a quick and easy weeknight meal?!

I think Flat Christy had a great time in Texas! I think she would have a great time in MARYLAND too !!! 🙂 We live in Jefferson, Maryland. Two children, two dogs, one fish, one mommy, one daddy. Flat Christy could go to the firehouse with daddy where he works and also stay home with the girls and I which is probably no where near as exciting as the firehouse !! Flat Christy could experience life with a tween daughter (totally crazy, let me tell you) and she could go to multiple sporting practices, games, tournaments, etc. She could also help us potty train the new puppy!!! The fun never ends here at our house- pleeeeeaaaase send Flat Christy !! Love, Kelli
I would so LOVE to have Flat Christy come for a visit here on our little farm. We live in Kansas and are gearing up for the Spring season so I could really use her help with farm chores…. the barn needs cleaned, stalls need mucked, cows need fed, horses need worked, and I may even have time to take her on a trail ride! On top of that, being in a house with a husband and three boys leaves me craving some girl time and we could totally bond while doing chores and playing the Wii.
Christy- i would cordially like to invite flat Christy to the great (flat) state of South Carolina (home of the GAMECOCKS!) I live in a small town called Clover and have lots of recipes I’d love for flat Christy to peruse and take home. I have 4 children and 1.5 grandchildren and a Maltese named Bailey, I’m sure if flat Christy came to visit she’d have loads of flat fun!! We have a garden out back that needs to be prepped for this season, grass to mow, laundry to fold and most importantly our house is FAMOUS for family fun time. So after all the chores are done we really know how to throw down and have a good ole time. We’ll take her to the greatest and flatest spots this side of the Mason Dixon line- hope to see her soon-

Made the crockpot meatloaf yesterday for dinner. Sooooo easy and it tasted great. My boys both had seconds! Yay!! Served it with some sweet tea (first time I made) which was also great. However, not something to give to a 3 y after 2 in the afternoon. He was up til 11 p.m. lol
Altho I am reading your post in December, I am laughing at your comment about the sweet tea and the 3-yr. old. We give our babies sweet tea in their bottles at about a 3 months. Never seen a baby or anyone else react negatively to sweet tea 🙂 We have it morning, noon, afternoon, suppertime and a glass to take to bed on the nightstand. Now to plan my meatloaf and sweet tea supper! Merry Christmas from SC.
Merry Christmas to you Sheila!!!
Christy, I made the crock-pot meatloaf tonight and it was a hit!! All four of my sons loved it. There wasn’t a piece left! Thanks for another great recipe. This one will be in my regular rotation.
I absolutely love that Flat Christy idea! And just think, you can try all of that delicious food, without gaining an ounce!
We’d love to have “flat” Christy here in NJ! I have one 4 year old and another cutie on the way. I think we’d take you to one of our favorite NJ diners and cook you a one of my famous recipes from my blog.
