Tasty Tuesdays: Bacon and Cheese Meatloaf

Growing up, my mom always made our favorite foods for our birthdays, and my dad was no exception. One recipe that he often asked for was this Bacon and Cheese Meatloaf.

Since he was at our house in Florida for his birthday, he got to ask for his favorites; and he asked for this dish. I had a slight problem because I did not have the recipe. I googled and found one very similar to my mom’s recipe here. Her recipe had 1 1/2 pounds of beef to one can of cheddar cheese soup, but we followed the recipe that is below for my dad’s birthday party and just doubled it.

Now, I do have to give one warning for this recipe: Make sure you stay home when this meatloaf is cooking and check in on it every once and a while. My mom once decided to have this cook on low while we were at church. The bacon grease caught on fire, and there was a small grease fire. There was no damage to the house or the stove as they caught it quickly, but we never again made it when we couldn’t watch it. We probably had cheap bacon that had a lot of grease too!

I hope you enjoy this wonderful recipe that includes traditional meatloaf with bacon and a wonderful cheese flavor!
