Diner style food

I love diner style food!  My favorite "blue plate special" is
MEATLOAF...
not just any old meatloaf, but the kind like
Mom used to make.
A thick slice was topped with buttery mashed potatoes, French fried onions and green onions.
I wonder...do people even eat meatloaf anymore?  I recently dug out the recipe that
is sure-fire, everyone loves it...kids will even it.  THAT is what we will
have for dinner tonight...and tomorrow meatloaf sandwiches for lunch.

Just in case you would like to try this out...I will share the recipe.

Combine: 2 eggs beaten
8 oz tomato sauce
3/4 cup cracker crumbs
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1/4 green pepper, finely chopped
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1 t. salt
1/2 t pepper
Add: 1-1/2 lbs ground beef
Mix well and shape into a loaf.
Place in a 9 X 5 loaf pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour

now for the best part...don't skip this
Combine 1/2 cup catsup
2 t mustard
2 T brown sugar..
Pour over meatloaf and bake an additional 10 to 15 minutes.
