    My family thinks I make great meatloaf, really I just kind of throw things together:

    Lean Hamburger 1 1/2-2 lbs
    1 egg
    some dried bread crumbs
    some onion
    some celery
    some green pepper
    1 can diced tomatoes
    1 can Italian seasoned tomatoes
    salt, pepper, garlic powder or garlic salt to taste

    mix

    shape into loaf

    top with Ketchup and at least 2 bacon slices

    This is our favourite recipe, it's from a cookbook where all the employees submitted their favourites: (and I usually have these ingredients in the house)

    Meatloaf:
    2 eggs
    2/3 cup milk
    2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp pepper
    3 slices fresh bread (pinched into crumbs)
    1 onion chopped
    1/2 cup shredded raw carrot
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (I use aged for the flavour)
    1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef

    Sauce:
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1/4 cup ketchup
    1 TBSP prepared mustard

    Break eggs into a large mixing bowl & beat lightly with fork. Add milk, salt, pepper & bread crumbs (I have used Panko crumbs but they're really too fine & absorb too much moisture). Beat until the bread disintegrates. Add onion, carrot, cheese & beef, mix well. Pack into a 9"x 5"loaf pan. For sauce combine the brown sugar, ketchup & mustard & pour over the top. Bake at 350*F for 1 hour. Let stand 10 minutes & serve. Will freeze well & is also nice cold.

    DD and her DH will often request this as our "guest" meal, and I serve it with his favourite garlic mashed potatoes (now that I've figured out to just add the purchased garlic butter...mmmmm)
