Dadi and Nati's Meatloaf

Meatloaf is better than you think. Use equal amounts of finely diced onions( 1 / 2 med) and finely diced mushrooms, 2 eggs, 1 /4 c milk, 2 tblespoons worcestershire , 1 /4 c ketchup, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp crushed red pepper, 1 tsp granulated garlic, and a half tube of crushed soda crackers per pound of ground beef. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, cover w/ ketchup or BBQ sauce and bake at 350 degrees for the remaining 20 to 30 minutes until cooked thoroughly.

Serve w/ baked potatoes, carrots and cabbage; butter and ketchup on the side. Yum .

If you finely dice the onions and mushrooms and saute them before you add them to the meat mixture, your 12 yr old daughter, who hates onions and mushrooms, won't even know that they are there, and will say" great meatloaf, Dad." Lucky me and lucky her.
