MEAT LOAF
I do not
have a recipe for my meat loaf, so I will tell you what I usually do. I love meat loaf sandwich, so I usually make a
2 to 3 pound loaf. When the family was
home I always made about a 5 pound loaf.
I usually use about 90% lean hamburger.
I add 1 egg per pound of meat, a handful of oatmeal, dry chopped onions,
salt and pepper to taste. Sometimes a little milk. My mother (Elpha Berla Hougland Blossom) often added shredded raw potato and
I like this too. The reason I went to
oatmeal is that I thought there was some additional food value. I then bake 350 degrees for 1 to 1 ½ hours. I have put a glaze of catsup, mustard, and
brown sugar on the top, but that is not my favorite. Grandpa (Ferrin Doyle Brinkerhoff) liked that, so often I did half and
half.
