Amazing Meatloaf

Ok, so you're thinking how can Meatloaf (the food) be amazing? Normally its pretty yucky and well you only make it when there is nothing left to cook. Well last night I was craving meatloaf, go figure, but its been close to 2 years since I've eaten any! So I figured I'd open one of my numberous cookbooks and find a meatloaf reciepe. While in the cookbook, "ANYONE CAN COOK" Yes, that means me too!! I found one, and I modified it as follows (since I am only cooking for one):

1 egg
1/3 cup of ketchup (so I didn't measure, so ballpark to how ketchupy you want it)
1/3 cup of ITATLIAN bread crumbs (again, didn't measure it out, ballpark it)
1/3 package of LIPTON Onion dip in a packet
1/3 lb of 93% lean ground beef
salt and pepper

Preheat your oven to 350F, then place some aluminum foil on the bottom of a baking dish or cookie sheet (I used a pyrex 9x11 baking dish). Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, place either a large ziplock bag or wax paper will work (I used wax paper). Crack the egg and mix it with the ketchup in the bag or paper. Next, mix in the bread crumbs and onion mix. Then put your meat in there and mix it all up. If you have the bag, at this point close it taking all the air out and squish it around. You can probably use your hands too, it's just REALLY messy.

Then place the mixture on your baking dish. With the reciepe above, it's a really small loaf, so if your cooking for more than 2, def. modify the ingredients. Cut the loaf in half, making two small "meat loaves" and place in the oven. Cook for about 20 minutes and check, and keep cooking until the meat is no longer red inside.

Now to finish it off, this is optional, but is SOOO Good, put some shredded cheese on top. YUM!! I ate it with green beans. Yummy. I can't wait to make more!
