Meatloaf

Directions

1. 1
   This can be made with a variety of ground meats.
2. 2
   I often use half ground turkey and half ground pork.
3. 3
   Preheat oven to 350 degrees and have a 13x9 inch pan waiting.
4. 4
   Mix the eggs and milk in a medium size bowl.
5. 5
   Add in the onion, oatmeal, and herbs.
6. 6
   Mix well.
7. 7
   Add the ground meat and mix well using your hands.
8. 8
   After mushing it together well, dump it into the pan and shape it into a loaf shape.
9. 9
   Longer is better, since it will cook more evenly.
10. 10
    Bake for 50 minutes.
11. 11
    Meanwhile, in a measuring cup, prepare the topping by combining the ketchup, brown sugar and prepared mustard.
12. 12
    When 50 minutes is up, take the pan out and pour off the grease into a heat-resistant container.
13. 13
    (Be CAREFUL, this can be heavy and HOT.)
14. 14
    Spoon the topping over the loaf and spread evenly.
15. 15
    Put the loaf back into the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.

    We serve this with homemade mac and cheese and green beans for family dinner night with my mother-in-law.
