Meatloaf Mondays

Ok, I've been terribly behind with teaching, coaching, grad school and wedding planning plus this fabulously cold weather has been wanting to enter into hibernation and not come out. But this past Monday we decided that we needed meatloaf and whipped up my favorite that my mom always made when we were little. These Lil Cheddar Meatloafs can be formed into little individual loafs or (like I did) make into one big loaf. 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

In a bowl, mix:

1 egg (beaten)

2/3 c milk

1/2 c quick cooking oats

1 c shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 c chopped onion

A dash of salt & pepper

A couple splashes or Worchestshire sauce. 

Then mix in a pound of ground beef. At this point I really do recommend putting rings and watches up high and start squishing with your hands. 

Spread it into a greased casserole dish. 

Mix up the meatloaf sauce by combining 2/3 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons yellow mustard and a splash of Worchestshire sauce. Stir together an door in top of meatloaf. 

Bake it for 45 minutes or until it's temperature is 165 degrees.
