Veggie Meatloaf

INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. ground beef
1 medium potato
1 large carrot
1 small zucchini
1 small yellow squash
1/2 - 3/4 cup oatmeal
2 eggs
1 can Mexican Stewed Tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
Grated cheese, desired style
Spices to taste, i.e., garlic, season salt like Lawry’s salt, pepper, onion powder.

 INSTRUCTIONS:
Grate potato, carrot, zucchini, and yellow squash and put in a bowl with ground beef. Add oatmeal, eggs and tomatoes to the bowl, mix together (feel free to use your hands). Put mixture into a cold electric skillet, and turn on to 300 degrees. Cook for about 30-45 minutes, then top meatloaf with tomato sauce and cheese. Cook an additional 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted. Check with meat thermometer to make sure meat is fully cooked. Enjoy!

 ***For a smaller servings size, you can half the recipe and bake it in the oven in a bread pan. Bake on 400 degrees for 45 minutes. Be sure to test with a meat thermometer as the tomato sauce tends to keep the ground beef looking red.
