Shredded Wheat and Oatmeal Meatloaf

Now that the cold weather is upon us
I like to serve meatloaf of all types.
Here is a recipe that adds in some
shredded wheat cereal and oatmeal

The meatloaf is tasty, juicy and holds
together well for making sandwiches.

1 cup crushed shredded wheat cereal

1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon prepared brown mustard

1 teaspoon salt or to taste

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup prepared ketchup
4 tablespoons brown sugar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large bowl whisk together eggs,
worcestershire sauce, mustard and milk.
Add in ground beef, shredded wheat cereal,
oats, bell peppers, salt and ground pepper,  mixing well.
Shape meat mixture into oval loaf in shallow baking pan.
Pour ketchup on top and spread over entire meatloaf.
Sprinkle top with brown sugar.
Bake 1 hour or until cooked to 160 degrees F.
Remove and let rest for 10 minutes before serrving.
