Crockpot Family Favorite Meat Loaf

by olga

Servings:

INGREDIENTS

2 beaten eggs
3/4 cup milk
2/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
2 tbs. grated onion
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground sage
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef

SAUCE:

1/4 cup catsup
2 tbs. brown sugar
1 tsp. dry mustard
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine eggs with milk, bread crumbs, onion, salt, sage, and meat. Mix well and shape into 9 x 5 inch rectangle or oval, or about 6 inches round. Carefully place in slow cooking pot. Cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. (I cooked it for 5 hours)

Combine sauce ingredients in small bowl; pour over meat. Cover and cook on high 15 minutes longer. Slice and serve while hot or use cold slices for sandwiches. Makes 6 servings.

Instead of fine dry bread crumbs I used 5 grain soda crackers whisked in the blender. Instead of grated onion I used finely chopped up green onions, and 2 cloves of mashed garlic and black pepper and about 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese. Simple ingredients and yet quite a tasty meat loaf. I also ground my own beef. I really like the addition of freshly ground nutmeg in the sauce.
