Sheet Pan Meatloaf is a simple one-pan dinner with mini meatloaves, perfectly roasted potatoes, and tender green beans all cooked together.
author’s note
From My Mom’s Kitchen to Mine!
So, funny enough, my mom never made a full-sized meatloaf growing up. What she did make all the time? Mini meatloaves. They were on a regular rotation, usually for Sunday dinner. She also made these porcupine meatballs (don’t worry, no actual porcupines involved!).
Now, as an adult and mom of three, I find myself making mini meatloaves all the time too. It’s one of those dinners my whole family loves, and they’re so easy to make. Plus, since they’re mini, they bake much faster than a traditional meatloaf.
And this Sheet Pan Meatloaf version is a total lifesaver because the sides cook right alongside the meatloaves. Roasted potatoes and green beans all on one pan. Honestly, are there better sides?!
Sheet Pan Meatloaf Ingredients
| Ingredient | Let’s Chat About It |
|---|---|
| Baby gold potatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper | Cut potatoes into similar-sized pieces so they roast evenly and finish at the same time. |
| Egg, grated onion, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, milk | Grating the onion helps it blend into the meatloaf mixture and adds moisture without noticeable chunks. |
| Italian seasoning, parsley (or basil), panko breadcrumbs | Fresh herbs add great flavor, but dried parsley or basil works in a pinch. |
| Lean ground beef, ketchup | Use lean ground beef to keep excess grease to a minimum on the sheet pan. |
| Green beans, olive oil, salt, pepper | Trim and dry green beans well so they roast instead of steam. |
How To Make My Sheet Pan Meatloaf Dinner
- Roast potatoes: Season and bake potatoes for 10 minutes.
- Make meatloaves: Mix ingredients with beef, and shape into mini meatloaves.
- Assemble pan: Toss potatoes to one side, add meatloaves, and bake.
- Add green beans: Add seasoned green beans to the empty section of the pan.
- Finish baking: Bake until vegetables are tender and meatloaves reach 160°F, then serve.

My Number 1 Tip
Use the right-size pan! You’ll need an EXTRA-LARGE 15×21-inch sheet pan for this recipe so everything fits and roasts properly.
Storage
Store leftover meatloaf, roasted potatoes, and green beans in separate airtight containers in the fridge for 3–4 days.

Sheet Pan Meatloaf
Equipment
- Large sheet pan (15" x 21")
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 pounds baby gold potatoes halved or quartered depending on size
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- 1/3 cup grated yellow onion 1 small onion
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1-1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons milk 1%, 2%, or whole
- 3 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley finely chopped or fresh basil
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/3 cup ketchup
- 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed
- 1-1/2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly coat a large sheet pan with cooking spray.
- Add potatoes to the sheet pan. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and season with garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Toss until evenly coated, then spread into an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, lightly beat the egg with a fork. Grate the onion directly into the bowl, then add Italian seasoning, tomato paste, panko, Worcestershire sauce, milk, parsley, 3/4 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper. Whisk until combined. Add ground beef and gently mix just until combined. Avoid overmixing, which can make the meatloaf dense.
- Divide and shape the mixture into 8 mini meatloaves (about 100 grams each). Remove potatoes from the oven and toss. Push potatoes to one side of the pan. Arrange meatloaves in the center section and spread ketchup evenly over the tops. Return the pan to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven. If needed, blot excess grease with paper towels. Place green beans in the empty section of the pan. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with 1/4 tsp salt and a pinch of pepper. Toss to coat.
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for 15–20 more minutes, or until potatoes and green beans are tender and meatloves reach an internal temperature of 160°F
- Serve immediately.

Delicious! Will for sure make again.
So happy to hear that! 🙂
Tried this tonight, and it tasted great! However, you need a lot of foil if you don’t want the liquid to all escape, turned into more like a 3 pan meal! I like that idea for mash though, like the slow cooker mash I do at Christmas.
Everything tasted fantastic! And this will be the only way I cook fresh green beans from now on. Definitely a keeper!
So happy to hear that! Thanks for the comment Deborah 🙂
Genius! No steamer and pot to clean for the green beans and no pot for the potatoes.
Thank you Rebecca! Glad you liked this!
I wish the recipe would print! 8-(
Hi Shelley! Have you tried printing it on a different browser or made sure your current browser is up to date? I can’t seem to replicate the problem to trouble shoot it unfortunately.
I just did a copy and paste into a Word document and printed it.
