Meatloaf

Good down home cooking... just about every household has it's own meatloaf recipes. The possibilities are endless. This is a good basic recipe with a twist at the end. Yeah, I know I can never leave well enough alone!

2 pounds ground chuck

2 eggs

1/4 cup ketchup

1 tablespoon mustard

2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce

1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

1 cup Italian-style dried breadcrumbs

salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste

Mix ingredients and place in 8x8 pan or casserole dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes.

**For an added kick, remove meatloaf from oven at 40 minutes... top with bacon and brush with 8oz can of tomato sauce. Return to oven for 15 minutes or until bacon is done.
