Meatloaf

Total Time: 1 hr 15 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 2 lbs ground beef (we use the leanest)
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1 medium onion
• 1 teaspoon pepper (freshly ground)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sage
• 1 -1 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• ketchup (optional)
• 3/4 lb sliced bacon (optional)

Recipe

• 1 in a food processor or blender, puree the onion.
• 2 after the onion is done, mix in two eggs, 1/3°c milk and set aside the liquid mixture.
• 3 in a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, 1 cup of the bread crumbs, spices and the liquid ingredients.
• 4 if the mixture seems too wet, mix in the remaining bread crumbs.
• 5 (depends on the size and moisture content of the onion.) cook on a roasting pan at 350 degrees.
• 6 do not cook in a bread pan, the liquids will stay in the pan with the meat. not a pretty sight!
• 7 options:
• 8 childhood memory option: put as many figure sized holes in the top or shape the meat loaf into your favorite childhood action figure. then fill in the holes with ketchup.
• 9 adult option: roll the meat loaf into a log and wrap with the sliced bacon.
