[meatloaf mania]

I have had several drive me crazy  ask me for this recipe, so I decided it was time to post it. I also didn't have much to blog about right now. Work has been crazy busy,I think this week they have been running a special right now on gallbladders and uterus' in the OR.  Ok, not really, but it sure feels like it. I have also been busy training for my newest position-Charge Nurse. lovely.  But anyways, to the meatloaf! My Nanna Paula gave me this recipe, and it is divine!

-1 1/2 lbs of ground chuck
-3 slices of bread (torn into small pieces)
-1 c. milk
-1/4 cup minced onion
-1 tablespoon ketchup
-1 tablespoon worcestershire
-1 1/4 teaspoon salt
-1 teaspoon tabasco
-1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
-2 1/2 cups sharp shredded cheese

1. Mix all ingredients EXCEPT cheese in bowl.
2. Place half meat mixture into meatloaf pan, then about 2 cups of cheese on top. Pat rest of meat mixture on top of cheese, and sprinkle top of meatlof with remainder cheese.
3. Bake @ 350 for 45-60 mins

**Remember cheese is greasy! I always use a meatloaf pan to drain the excess grease while baking. Also, when meatloaf is finished I pour out grease from on top of pan, and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving!

Sorry I don't have a picture, but trust me....delish! Happy baking.
