Directions
Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃).
Combine all loaf ingredients, using your hands.
Form into loaf and place in 9 X 5 X 3" loaf pan, cover with layer of chili sauce or ketchup if desired, bake 50 minutes to 1 hour.
Do not overbake, since part of the secret of fluffiness is shorter cooking time.
Serve the meat loaf sliced and hot. Serves 4.
Variation: Half ground veal and half ground beef can be used for the meat loaf - lower in calories.
