When my sisters, brothers and I went away to college in the 80s my mother gave us each a cookbook with all the recipes for the food we ate growing up. She recently asked if I had the recipes electronically, since I didn't I decided to start posting them for family to share. I have posted the recipes as she wrote them. Best thing she ever gave me, I use the cookbook to this day!

Meat Loaf

1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1/2 c chili sauce (ie: Heinz Chili Sauce)
1 t Worcestershire sauce
1 t salt
1/4 t pepper
13 saltines crushed
1 onion chopped
3-4 slices bacon

Mix together the ground beef, egg, chili sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, 10 saltines and the onion. Grease a loaf pan and pack the meat mixture into it. Crush 3 saltines and sprinkle over the top. lay the bacon slices over all. Bake in moderate oven, 350, for an hour. Serve hot or cold. Don't call me if it doesn't stay together. Cold is cheating by the way. Four to six servings.
