Mayo has egg in it so if you have an egg allergy this is not a substitute for egg.

Eggs are in mayonnaise. So not a good substitute if youre allergic to eggs.

If your issue is an egg allergy - there are eggs in Mayo! If you just ran out of eggs, than this works.

Yeah but if you're substituting because you're just out of eggs then this is genius sauce!

I just use oatmeal. Add about 1 1/2 cups. You can also use with ground turkey.

If someone is trying to eliminate eggs from their diet because of allergies or other reasons Mayonnaise wouldnt work as a substitute because it is made from eggs. Otherwise, that is a great suggestion.

If you are substituting for egg because of an allergy then Mayonnaise will not work

Our original question doesn't talk about having an egg allergy. Another possibility is simply that someone is out of eggs but wants to make meatloaf without running to the store. Mayo would be a good substitution then.

For an egg free meatloaf, I would probably try flaxseed. It is a commonly suggestion substitution for eggs in all sorts of recipes.

But there is egg yolk in mayonnaise - those with egg allergies will not be able to use this as a substitute.

This is true but our original question doesn't mention egg allergies. Another reason for substitution might just be because someone is out of eggs.

In this case, mayo is a decent substitute.

Mayo has egg yolks usually not egg whites. So if youre allergic to egg whites you can have mayo.

Mayo has eggs so if one has an allergy to eggs, dont use regular
mayo or salad dressing.

Mayo has egg in it, so this won't work well if you're dealing with egg allergy.

Yes! I totally agree
I also use mayo as a hack for turning my sauces and broths into creamy delicious yum when I dont have or dont feel like doing it the traditional way.

Im the one who bucks the old wives tales my mom told me growing up that its dangerous to heat up mayo; its my secret ingredient in some of my cooking.
Mayo also gives grilled cheese and other grilled breads that perfect golden brown, delicate and flavorful crunch.

Mayonaise usually uses eggs in it to make it. Please check ingredients list first if you or anyone you are going to be feeding it to has a egg allergy. Do they maybe make an egg free mayonaise?? Vegetarian maybe? Or olive oil kind??

I use bread crumbs instead of eggs, and it works great.

How do make meatloaf without eggs

 
December 24, 20180 found this helpful

Use left over seasoned stuffing bread .you may want to smash them up. Gives it that extra yummy flavor.

 
February 27, 20190 found this helpful

I had no eggs and no pablo. So, I had stuffing mix that was seasoned. I crushed some and added and it was good. Added no eggs. Ok, it is in the oven now, almost done.

After it sits 10 mins, I will see how well it stays together! If it doesn't, I guess it's back to the beginning again. Crossing my fingers!

It must be a regional thing, I've never heard of putting egg in meatloaf. I've certainly never done it and my meatloaf always turns out fine.

 
November 7, 20090 found this helpful

Regular mayo has eggs in it. If you are really trying to stay away from eggs. Hellman's low fat has egg whites in it. I use a product called All Whites, which is just that all egg whites.

I know it costs more than eggs, but it's so convenient and it tastes good. Since one poster said that she never adds eggs, I'll try that next time. :)

My mother and I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, about as far from West Virginia as you can get in the US. My mom taught me to put an egg in my meatloaf, it is one of the first "recipes" she taught me. I have never made it without :) Let us know how the mayo works out.

There are also some good ideas in the archived feedback. One calls for tomato paste, which might work as a binder.
Good luck!

Apple sauce should work fine.

 
July 30, 20190 found this helpful

I've also heard of tomato sauce, apple sauce, and olive oil. I'm not sure of the measurements

 
August 28, 20200 found this helpful

Substitute 1/4 cup of tomato sauce for each egg. I have used some applesauce or canned milk at times. I don't remember how much but you can use flax meal or maybe they call it ground flaxseed meal.

I make meatloaf with 2 lbs ground beef,breadcrumbs,onion soup mix and carnation evaporated milk,sm can. Then I put holes and but velveeta cheese chunks in holes. Cover cheese over and add barbecue sauce on top and bake at 350 for approximately 1 hour.

Vegans customarily combine 2 tablespoons water with 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed or chia seeds. This is called a vegan "egg" and is - of course - packed with nutrition. Combine the two ingredients in a small bowl and set aside for 10 - 15 minutes. It's a great binding agent and one needn't be vegan to use it.
