Meatloaf


Meatloaf


Ingredients:
2 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, diced
1 egg
2 slices of sandwich bread, torn up into crumbs 2-3 slices of bacon,

Procedure:
cut in half to make them shorter Ketchup Mix together the ground beef, onion, egg and bread crumbs in a large bowl together with a with a couple of squirts from the ketchup bottle. I usually use my hands to mix this with because the mixture is thick and is hard to stir with a spoon or spatula. Form the mixture into a loaf and 
place in a shallow ungreased baking dish. For a traditional topping, add a couple of more squirts of ketchup onto the top of the loaf and spread it around with the back of a spoon. Then lay the half strips of bacon to cover the ketchup and the loaf.Put the loaf in a 350 degree oven for a little over an hour until done! Take it out of the baking dish right away so that it does not soak up the grease released by the baking. Let the 
loaf rest on a serving plate for five minutes or so – that will allow it to set for easier slicing.For my Aunt Janes’ Italian meatloaf variant you will need these additional ingredients
