Day eleven mission "Cabinet Dinner"

Are you ready for this? Quaker Oatmeal not plain, the ones in the "ready to go" individual packages!!  Flavors would include Maple & Brown Sugar, Apple Cinnamon, and Apple Spice.  These boxes of oatmeal are actually the reason I started this mission.  We have 6 boxes stacked nicely in the cupboard.  Everytime I open that cupboard it frustrates me that NOBODY eats them.  Of course, it was an amazing deal with coupons and "I had to get them".  Whatever!!  Now I have to figure out how to use them.....

Meatloaf!

Ingredients went as follows:

1lb ground beef
Italian Seasoning, add to your taste
salt and pepper
1 pkg Maple & Brown Sugar Oatmeal
1 Egg

Topping:
1 tbsp Worchestshire Sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/3 cup ketchup
2 tbsp Dijon Mustard

First 5 ingredients went in the bowl and mixed all together, formed this into a loaf and placed in my bread pan.  Combined the next 4 ingredients in a small bowl until the brown sugar was dissolved and poured over the top of the loaf.  Cooked at 350 degrees for 1 hour.  Add whatever else you would like for side dishes, we had baked potatos.

Comments from family:

Daughter - She had two helpings - Need I say more!
Hubby - It's a little sweeter, but so good!
Me - It was very tasty, the topping started to crystalize, which gave it a yummo taste.  Next time I will put 2 packages of oatmeal.
