Amazing German Meatloaf Recipe
This German meatloaf is the perfect comfort meal and topped with a dark beer sauce after baking. Called Zwiebelhackbraten in German, this easy meatloaf packs a ton of onions, giving it a subtle, sweet flavor.It's one of my favorite German recipes and I love serving it with some homemade Bratkartoffeln (German pan-fried potatoes) or Spätzle (German egg noodles) and a simple salad.
