meatloaf

A dish consisting of ground meat, typically beef, mixed with other ingredients such as breadcrumbs and eggs, shaped into a loaf and baked.
Noun
pl: meatloaves

This term refers to a specific culinary preparation where ground meat is formed into a rectangular block. It carries a strong connotation of home-style, comfort food and is frequently associated with traditional family dinners in North American culture.

While the word describes a single baked unit, it is often treated as an uncountable mass noun when referring to the food substance itself, leading to the common use of partitive expressions such as "a slice of meatloaf" or "a serving of meatloaf" to specify quantity.
