.Marnie's Meatloaf.

Last night was one of those nights that had me wanting too do absolutely nothing. It was drab out. Kinda chilly. And my bones felt the first signs of fall coming on. I  really just felt like crawling under a big, cozy blanket, sip on some tea, watch a movie, and eat some comfort food. So that's exactly what I did. I grabbed an old duvet, made some black currant tea {my fav}, put in the movie Something Borrowed, and made homemade Meatloaf.
And I don't even like meatloaf, but when I came across this recipe from one of my favorite 'youtube' gals Marnie's Musings, it just seemed to call out to me. It turned out too be the BEST. MEATLOAF. EVER. New staple in the Treb household!
Messy, Flavorful, Ooey-gooey Goodness. And don't let it's ugly appearance fool you, it was Amazing!!

2/3 cup milk
2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
3 slices bread, crumbled
Half an onion, chopped
1/4 cup shredded raw carrot
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef (can also use ground turkey, or mix different kinds of ground meat like I did with ground Pork + Turkey!)
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
 
1 tbsp yellow mustard
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Beat eggs with milk; add salt, pepper and bread and mix until the bread absorbs the milk.

4. In a small bowl, mix ketchup, brown sugar and mustard and spread over the top of loaf.
