MARE'S MOST DELICIOUS MEATLOAF

Steps:

• put meat, bread (broken up in large pieces), both eggs beaten with the milk, onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• in a large bowl.
• then mix about 1/2 the can of soup into meat mixture (if you are using 2 small cans mix 1 can into meat mixture).
• mix thoroughly with VERY clean hands.
• shape into a loaf (it will be soft, very mushy to be exact, a friend told me to say it is the consistancy of"tuna salad" or canned cat food") don't worry, it is a sort of flatter than most meat loafs.
• Mix about 1 cup of water with remaining soup (if you are using the large can) and pour over loaf (or mix 1 cup water with the other small can and pour over loaf).
• Bake at 375 degrees about 1 hour and 30 minutes (adding water periodically).
• if the gravy looks too light -- cook for another 30 minutes -- it will never be too dry -- but the gravy will have a little more flavor -- keep scrapping down the sides.
• It will be golden brown on top and you will have delicious gravy to use over rice or potatoes.
• It is the best meat loaf you will ever eat (it is VERY moist and so delicious).
