Meatloaf!

Just the word meatloaf makes people turn up their noses. I don't know why! We LOVE meatloaf around here. It is one of my kids favorite meals, meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans. We only rarely have leftovers, and when we do, they make fantastic sandwiches the next day.

I will start with 2 pounds of ground beef and a pound of breakfast sausage or Italian sausage. Add 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon onion powder and garlic powder, an egg, and 1/2 cup ketchup. Mix well and press tightly into a loaf pan. Top with 1/2 cup of ketchup mixed with 1/4 cup brown sugar. Bake at 375 for an hour. Let sit at least 10 minutes before trying to remove from the pan.

You can do all the prep the night before and cook on low for 8 hours in the crock pot, too. YUM!
