Cheesy Meatloaf

Cheesy Meatloaf

Serves 8-10

1/2 cup chopped onion

1/4 cup chopped green pepper

1 T. butter

2 lbs ground beef

1 cup (8 oz can) tomato sauce

2 eggs, beaten

4 oz cheddar or American cheese (I add more)

1 cup soft bread crumbs

1/4 tsp thyme

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

Instructions:

1. Saute onion and green pepper until soft.
2. Remove from heat. 
3. Mix with other ingredients, blending well.
4.  Shape into loaf and place in 10"x14" pan (I use a meatloaf pan so the grease drains out)
5. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour.

My mom got this recipe from a really old cookbook called "Yankee's Main Dish Church Supper Book." It makes really good leftovers. (I prefer it without the onion and pepper... but to each his own.)
