CIN'S "EASY ITALIAN STYLE MEATLOAF W/A TWIST"

Steps:

• 1. Grease loaf pans with extra-virgin olive oil. Preheat oven to 350 dF.
• 2. Topping: Using the 1/4 can tomato paste you retained add 1/4 c ketchup and 1/8 c vidalia onion poppyseed dressing...mix together well, set aside.
• 3. Grab yourself a large mixing bowl (big enough to get your hands in), to mix ingredients up. Add aLL ingredients together, (except topping mix), and combine well.
• 4. Put into oiled loaf pans and spread your topping all over the top of each loaf. This mixture will make enough to fill 1-regular sized loaf pan plus 2-mini loaf pans (or 2-regular loaf pans).
• 5. Bake for approximately 1 to 1 1/2 hours (or when the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160 dF)...I baked all 3 in oven at the same time together, so it took about 1-1/2 hours to bake it, When baked let it rest about 5 minutes or more, on cooling racks before removing from pan to platter, then it's ready to eat. Enjoy!!!!
