Recipe - Grandma Alma's Meatloaf




I remember as a child going to my Grandparents house and hoping that my Grandmother would make her meatloaf. This was the only meatloaf that I enjoyed back then.


Grandma was kind enough to share her recipe.


This recipe is very simple but it is so good.


To be honest, I can't make it quite as good as Grandma, but it must have been that little linch of love that she threw in but didn't include it in her recipe.


Grandma Alma's Meatloaf

1 to 1/4 Lbs. ground meat

1/3 can of Tomato soup

3 Tbsp catsup

1 small bell pepper

1/2 medium onion, chopped fine

1 Egg

1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 Can diced tomatoes, juice reserved

Crackers

Salt

Pepper


Preheat oven to 350 F


Mix meat, catsup, onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, tomatoes, salt & pepper

with enough crushed crackers to make the loaf firm.


Mix the tomato juice, the tomato soup and enough water to make 1 cup of

liquid. Pour the liquid over the meatloaf


Cut the bell pepper into wedges or rings and place on top of the meatloaf as

decoration.


Bake at 350 F for 1 hour and 15 minutes
