Meatloaf is good for a hot entrée, and it makes great sandwiches the next day. In fact, some say the true test of meatloaf is whether it makes good sandwiches! Just remember to read labels on your store-bought condiment ingredients to check for any nasty lactose lurkers that will make your tummy not like the meatloaf.

• Preheat oven to 350°F.

• Combine all ingredients except the tomato sauce. Thoroughly mix with your hands. Shape into a loaf.

• Place in a 9″ × 5″ pan. Spoon tomato sauce over top of loaf.

• Bake for 1 hour. Drain fat and juices.

• Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Leaner Than Lean

Do you know what those “lean” labels on ground beef really mean? Let's say you need one pound of ground beef. If the label reads that the ground beef is 95 percent lean, it has 23 grams of fat (before cooking). Compare that to one pound of ground beef that is 80 percent lean, which has 91 grams of fat.
