Any time one of my recipes has "Mama" in the title, it came from my lovely mother, Mrs. Joyce Craig. She is an excellent cook and I still rely on her daily for cooking advice.

How To Make mama's meat loaf
-
Step 1Make sure carrots, peppers, and onions are grated/chopped and in a bowl ready and waiting.
-
Step 2Add milk, egg, and tomato sauce.
-
Step 3Add your three slices of bread and let sit for about 5 minutes so it can get good and mushy.
-
Step 4Work all ingredients with hands, adding meat as you go until all ingredients and all meat are mashed around together in the bowl. In a seperate bowl, whisk together your ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar. This will be your topping sauce.
-
Step 5Spray one loaf pan (or a few smaller ones) and shape a loaf into the pan. Bake at 350 for 1 hour or until well done. I usually take mine out and drain mine every 15 minutes or so. About 30 minutes into the baking process, take your meatloaf(s) out and spread your sauce on top. It is soo good and tangy!
