Instructions
 

  • Make the meat mix: Place all ingredients for the meatloaf in a large bowl and mix very well.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Shape the loaf: Lightly oil a sheet pan and dump the meat mix on it. Shape into a firm loaf.
  • Add the topping: Place the bacon slices on top of the meatloaf, overlapping slightly.
