Meatloaf

For my family, traditionally meatloaf has always been a hearty meal with a bit of home, comfort food style.

This is a recipe that I had done when I was a teenager and have been making it ever since.

As many dishes in many recipes that have been hiding for long periods of time, this is one that I have recently brought back as a weekly dish that indeed, does not come up short.


Ingredients:

2 lbs of ground hamburger
1 smallr ed pepper (diced)
1 small yellow onion (diced)
4 cloves of fresh minced garlic, or just use standard garlic powder (Ultimately it depends how much you love garlic to decide how much to add)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup of Ketchup.
1 can of tomato soup
salt and pepper to taste.


Directions:

1.  Just mix it all in a bowl.

2. Add to a greesed casserole dish and cover with tomato soup.

3.  Cook in the oven at 400F for 40 minutes.



When finished, remove from casserole dish and let stand 5 minutes.  Slice and enjoy.


Left over drippings mixed with tomato soup can make a very nice sauce to go over your meatloaf.

Enjoy!
