Joolie and Eric's Kitchen Korner presents: Hot cross meatloaf

First, you will need a cake pan in the shape of a cross. We have had ours for a long time. I'm not sure why.

Next, make your meatloaf mix. We used the standard beef/egg/bread crumb/onion soup mix/ketchup recipe.

After the ingredients are evenly distributed and sufficiently gooey, press the mix firmly into your cake pan.

Meat fingers! (Sort of like spirit hands, but with raw ground beef.)

Gently tap the molded meat mix out of the cake pan and onto a cookie sheet.

Slather with ketchup.

Shroud in bacon. Cook at 350 for an hour and twenty minutes; sprinkle with shredded cheese and return to oven for another 15 minutes.

Invite some nice friends over to help you eat it because it's totally delicious. Serves six, with a little left over for sandwiches.

This gives a whole new meaning to, like, everything I ever learned in Sunday School.

Wow.

[vickie]

now you need a little meat Jesus to hang on the cross!

[token]

That is so not the meatloaf Jesus would eat!

[kristy]

This is possibly one of the best ideas we have ever had, and you and Eric came through with the perfect sacreligious loaf.

Actually, I'm still thinking about how great that meatloaf was. I think I even had a dream about it last night. Mmmmmmmeatloaf.

I am a Catholic vegan and I still find this appetizing.

Holy crap that looks good! I should have had a bite while I was over there!

[Angela]

I've only got a Bundt pan! Can I still make the loaf?

[Dr. Mystery]

Angela,
Trust in Jesus and he will turn your Bundt pan into a cross-shaped pan. Damn, that was good meatloaf.

Now, if you made it out of tuna fish instead of beef you could even have t for friday night dinner.
