LOAF

I don't really like that word 'loaf', but this is pretty good. I can take out the onions for the non-onion peeps, but I think onions contribute to the overall flavor. I plan to use ground turkey, for health and we like it better. Sorry to make you turn your oven on, but if you thaw it... should only take 30- 1 hour max to bake.

Bacon Swiss Meatloaf
1 bacon strip, crumbled
1 egg, beaten
1/3 Cup butter crackers crushed
5 Tablespoons shredded Swiss cheese
4 ½ teaspoons chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
¼ teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
½ lb. Ground beef
In bowl combine egg, crackers, 4 Tablespoons shredded cheese, chopped onion, garlic, bacon, salt and pepper. Add beef into mixture and combine. Shape into loaf and freeze wrapped in tin foil or in a ziploc bag. When ready to cook take out of the freezer and place in a loaf pan. Top with more bacon pieces if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes- 1 hour.
