Sweet and Sour Meatloaf

Source: My friend, Tyrelle Erikson

Ingredients:

Meatloaf:
1 lb. ground turkey or ground ham
1 lb. ground pork
1 lb. ground beef
2 eggs
1 cup bread crumbs
1 tbsp. parsley
1/2 green pepper, minced
1/2 onion, minced
salt/pepper

Sauce: (See Notes)
1 can tomato soup
1/4 - 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp. mustard (wet)
cornstarch, if needed to thicken sauce

Directions:
Mix together all meatloaf ingredients, press into a loaf pan, and bake at 350 F for 1 hour. Meanwhile, stir/blend together sauce ingredients. After baking, discard any grease that has accumulated. Pour 1/3 of the sauce on top of loaf ad bake for an additional 1/2 hour, reserving some of the sauce to top with meatloaf slices when serving.

Notes: Our friends have served this to us for dinner a couple of times, and holy smokes, it is delicious! The first time we had it, Bret ate so much that he was stuffed sick for a few hours - it was just so hard to stop! The best part is most definitely the sauce. I noticed that Tyrelle usually doubles the sauce recipe so that there is plenty to add on as you eat and/or sop up with some garlic bread.
