This Mushroom Meatloaf with Mushroom Gravy is a delicious take on a classic meatloaf. The mushrooms bring an added savory element to this tasty midweek meal. I like to serve a simple mushroom gravy with this meatloaf.
To make this dish, start by mixing all of the meatloaf ingredients until well combined. Place in a loaf pan or shape into free form loaf and place on a parchment lined sheet pan. Bake in the oven. As the meatloaf bakes, make the mushroom gravy by sauteing mushrooms and adding cornflour, beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Cook while stirring constantly, until slightly thickened. Taste for seasoning and adjust to taste with salt and pepper.
