Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf
Meatloaf
1 1/2 pounds 85% lean ground beef
1 cup oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Secret Sauce
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons catsup
Toppings
8 large (about 4 x 6-inch each) slices cheddar cheese
8 strips thick-sliced bacon, crisp-cooked and halved
2 medium tomatoes, sliced
8 hamburger buns or other favorite roll or bread, split
and toasted (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 13 x 9-inch metal baking pan with cooking spray.
For meatloaf, combine all meatloaf ingredients in large bowl; mix lightly but thoroughly. Press mixture evenly into pan.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until meatloaf reaches medium doneness (160 degrees F) and center is no longer pink. Drain off any juices. Heat broiler.
For Secret Sauce, combine ingredients in small bowl; mix well. Spread over hot meatloaf, completely covering; cut meatloaf into 8 rectangles. (Do not remove from pan.) Top each rectangle with cheese, 2 half pieces bacon and tomato slices.
Broil meatloaf 5 to 6 inches from heat source 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese melts. Serve, if desired, on bun or bread.
Makes 8 servings.
