This meatloaf with sweet potatoes recipe is easy and yummy! One of my daughter’s favourites.
The meat and sweet potatoes flavour each other beautifully! The sweet potatoes are savoury with a mild natural sweetness. The meatloaf takes on some of the sweetness, which mixes well with the delicious and saltiness of the meat.

4 medium sweet potatoes - organic
2 pounds ground beef (minced beef)
½ pound Italian sausage (American name for Pork Sausage with Fennel Seeds) - MSG free and nitrate-free

Instructions
- Peel and cut sweet potatoes.
- Layer bottom of slow cooker with the sweet potatoes.
- Add all ingredients except sweet potatoes and an optional 1/2 cup of ketchup on top in a large bowl. I like to mix mine by hand. But I make sure I remove rings and have everything in the bowl before mixing with hands, so I do not have to take them out until done mixing.
- Form meat into a loaf shape and place on top of sweet potatoes
- If desired, cover with ketchup. Place lid on slow cookers.
- Cook on high for 5 to 6 hours or low for 7 to 8 hours.
- Thirty minutes before serving, turn the slow cooker off.
