Saturday Dinner

You might think that meatloaf is gross but we think it is good.
So Saturday night I made meatloaf for us.

My meatloaf turned out pretty good.
It wasn't the meatloaf that was rock hard, it just feel apart.
I have made meatloaf before for Casey and I but this was a different recipe.
This recipe had a sauce recipe that just makes the meatloaf much better!
And if I so myself, I did a pretty good job on it.
I got the recipe from the book called WorldWide Ward Cookbook: Secret Recipes.
It is a great cookbook and it has some really good recipes.

The meatloaf

In addition to the meatloaf, we had some green beans.

Green beans are my favorite veggie. :]

If you are a meatloaf lover, you should try this recipe.

School Meatloaf

Meat: 

1 1/2 ld. ground beef

1 slice of bread, finely chopped

1 egg

1 small sweet onion, finely chopped

1 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

4 tbsp. ketchup

1/2 C. whole milk or half-n-half

Sauce: 

4 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar

2 - 4 Tbsp. packed dark brown sugar

1/2 cup ketchup

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bread, egg, onion, salt, pepper, ketchup, and milk or half-n-half. Place into a load baking dish. In a separate bowl, combine vinegar, brown sugar, and ketchup. Pour over top and sides of meatloaf. Bake at 350 for 60 - 75 minutes, or until done. You can heat a second batch of sauce to serve with the meatloaf. Makes 12 servings.

My tweaks to the recipe:

Instead of using bread crumbs I used oatmeal flakes. 

(My mom uses oatmeal flakes other than

 bread crumbs in her meatloaf.)

Hope you enjoy.!
