Make Ahead Meat Loaf

I love to make this meat loaf ahead of time and just pot it in the oven an hour or so before we want to eat.  I scrub some Idaho Baking Potatoes and have them rubbed down with oil and ready to put in the oven along with the meat loaf.

You'll need:  one egg, 1 1/2 pounds of ground beef/pork, 1/3 cup of oatmeal, 1/3 cup of ketchup and 1/3 cup of chopped onions, a squirt of yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon ground sage, salt and salt.

In a large mixing bowl, beat one egg, add the ketchup, mustard, chopped onion, sage, salt and pepper mix well.  Next add the oatmeal and the meat.  I like to use a combo of ground beef and pork, if you like you could probably use ground turkey.  Shape into a loaf and place in a ungreased loaf pan.  When you are ready to bake it, place the loaf pan in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 90 minutes, let it cool for ten minutes before you slice it and serve.
