NANA'S MEATLOAF WITH TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• For the meatloaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place beef, sausage, eggs and panko in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Place tomatoes, vinegar, Worcestershire, oregano, pepper, thyme, kosher salt, seasoning salt, garlic, yellow onion, chile and red onion in a high-powered blender and puree. Reserve half of this mixture for the tomato gravy. Pour the remaining half into the mixing bowl with the meat. Mix the meat really well with your hands until the meatloaf mixture is all the same color.
• Pack the meatloaf mixture into a 6-by-11-inch pan (or something similar). Place pan on a baking sheet to catch any fat that spills out during cooking. Bake the meatloaf until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 155 degrees F, 1 hour 30 minutes. Let meatloaf rest for 10 minutes, then pour the fat out of the pan.
• For the tomato gravy: Meanwhile, whisk together ketchup, tomato paste, mustard and reserved vegetable mix in a saucepan. Place over medium heat and bring up to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, then simmer, stirring every couple of minutes, for 30 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve the tomato gravy with your finished meatloaf! Most importantly, enjoy with friends and family!

NANA-NUT OATMEAL

Steps:

• Combine oats, flaxseed, and water and cook for 3 1/2 - 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of oatmeal that you like. Then add the remaining ingredients, stir, and enjoy! Sometimes I like to add more water even after cooking my oatmeal so it's kind of like a porridge.
