February 26, 2010 Ray McCune

Garlic powder to taste

Combine ingredients in order given and blend well after each ingredient is added. Shape into a loaf and put into a lightly greased bread loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees. Drain off any grease that has formed. Cool, turn out onto a cutting board, slice, serve, and enjoy. Refrigerate leftover meatloaf if there is any.

MY FAVORITE MIDNIGHT SANDWICH

Slather both pieces of bread with mayonnaise and horseradish on one side. Cover one slice of bread with thick slices of meatloaf and put the other slice of bread on top. Eat, enjoy, take a Pepcid, and go back to bed.
