Aley's Famous Meat Loaf

Ingredients:
2lb Ground Beef
1 cup Crushed Crackers (we usually use Ritz)
1 med-lg Onion chopped
½-1 Bell Pepper chopped
2 Eggs
1 cup Milk
1 tbsp Salt
1 tsp Black Pepper

Topping Sauce:
⅓ cup Ketchup
2 tbsp Packed Brown Sugar
1 tbsp Prepared Mustard
mix ketchup, mustard, & brown sugar well!

Put onion, bell pepper, egg, milk, salt & pepper in a blender and puree'. Combine meat & blender mixture, add cracker crumbs, mix thoroughly. Pack into a 9"X5" loaf pan (we always make a double batch for sandwich leftovers therefore we use a large crock bowl). Pour sauce over meat loaf, bake 1 hour @ 350°, let stand before slicing, will serve 8
When I'm in a hurry I have put my own twist on this simply by baking it in muffin tins so that it doesn't have to be sliced, mom loved my muffin tin idea!
