Meatloaf

This is a favorite at our house, and there is never any leftovers!  I have to at least double the recipe, plus I usually do baked potatoes with it as a filler.  The pictures don't always make it look super appetizing, but I promise its good. 




Meatloaf
1 lb. hamburger
1/4 c. chopped onion
1 Tbs. vinegar
1 Tbs. brown sugar
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tbs. soy sauce
1 tsp. prepared mustard
1 egg, beaten
1 can tomato sauce (reserve a little to drizzle over top)
bread crumbs (I break up about 2 pieces of bread)
salt
pepper


Mix everything together, reserving a little of the tomato sauce for the top.  Put mixture into loaf pans or a small glass casserole dish.  Drizzle reserved tomato sauce over top, or use ketchup.  Bake at 350 degrees about an hour.

Tips:
*If you like stuffed green peppers, cut the green peppers in half and stuff with the meat mixture.  Place on a cookie sheet to cook.
*If you are in a hurry, try cooking at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.  It will be slightly drier and a little crispier on the edges, but I do it often. 
*I rarely measure any of the ingredients.  I just throw it all in.  It comes out great. 
*If you only have a single oven you can cook baked potatoes at the same time in the oven with the meatloaf. 


 Mix everything together in a large bowl (sorry, this stainless steel bowl didn't make for a very good picture). Spread into loaf pans or small casserole dish.


Drizzle the top with the remaining tomato sauce.  You could also use ketchup if you wanted to.  Bake at 350 1 hour or 400 30 minutes.
