EASY MEATLOAF

Steps:

• 1. Hamburger meat- thawed, put in a mixing bowl
• 2. Saltine crackers - if you have a food processor crumb the crackers..if not, crunch up in the bag it comes in until its crumbs. Add to your mix.
• 3. Add egg, picante sauce, salt and black pepper.
• 4. Mix with your bare hands.....lol you must mush it together and make a loaf. Put it in a deep baking pan, and smother it with the ketchup.
• 5. Bake in your oven at 375. Should be ready in 35 to 45 min. I alway cut mine right in the middle to check if it has pink in the center. If so just put it back in for another 10-15 mins or so. By cutting it in half it will allow the center to cook faster with out the out side being burnt.

SAVORY MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• 1. Meat loaf: Combine all ingredients in meat loaf; mix well and put in a well sprayed loaf pan. Bake in 350^ oven for 1 hour. While this is baking: combine the picante topping ingredients, mixing well . After meatloaf has baked for 40 minutes remove from oven and drain any collected grease carefully so as not to burn yourself. Now Pour some of the Picante topping over top of meatloaf and place back in the oven to continue baking until done. Note : I have made this in the microwave several times using a glass loaf dish and it comes out great and needs only about 20 minutes to cook.--- This is so good with the topping- that I often make extra to serve with the meat slices.
