Ingredients:

For the Onions:

3–4 large sweet onions, sliced πŸ§…
(Sweet yellow or Vidalia onions work best for caramelization.)

4 tablespoons salted butter 🧈
(Helps caramelize the onions and adds richness.)

For the Meatloaf:

1 teaspoon salt πŸ§‚
(Balances flavors and enhances overall taste.)

½ teaspoon black pepper 🌿
(Adds a subtle kick.)

Β½ teaspoon garlic powder πŸ§„
(Enhances savory notes.)

Β½ teaspoon onion powder πŸ§…
(Complements the caramelized onions beautifully.)

1 pound ground beef πŸ₯©
(Choose lean or regular based on preference.)

1 cup breadcrumbs 🍞
(Provides structure while keeping the meatloaf tender.)

Additional Ingredients:

1 cup shredded Swiss cheese πŸ§€
(For melty goodness atop the meatloaf.)

Optional Toppings: Fresh parsley or additional Swiss cheese for garnish. πŸŒΏπŸ§€

Instructions:

Step 1: Caramelize the Onions

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the salted butter. 🧈

Add the sliced onions and cook for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized. πŸ§…

Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2: Prep the Meatloaf Mix

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. πŸ₯©πŸžπŸ§‚πŸŒΏπŸ§„

Use your hands or a fork to mix gently until just combinedβ€”avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf light.

Step 3: Assemble in the Crockpot

Lightly grease the bottom of your slow cooker with cooking spray or oil.

Place half of the caramelized onions at the bottom of the crockpot. πŸ§…

Shape the meatloaf mixture into a log and place it on top of the onions.

Cover the meatloaf with the remaining caramelized onions.

Step 4: Add Swiss Cheese

Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the top of the meatloaf and onions. πŸ§€

Ensure the cheese covers the surface for maximum meltiness.

Step 5: Cook Until Tender

Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6–8 hours or high heat for 3–4 hours, until the meatloaf is fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165Β°F / 74Β°C) and the onions are tender. ⏳

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy!

Let the meatloaf rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing.

Garnish with fresh parsley or extra Swiss cheese if desired. πŸŒΏπŸ§€

Serve alongside mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or crusty bread for a satisfying meal. πŸ₯”πŸ₯–

Enjoy this delicious, slow-cooked meatloaf with caramelized onions and melty Swiss cheeseβ€”it’s a comforting dish perfect for any occasion! 🍽️✨
