Steps

1 mins

1

Preheat oven to 350°.
2

In a large mixing bowl, crush crackers with a potato masher.
3

Add beef and stir.
4

Add bell pepper, onion, & tomato. Stir.
5

Add salt, pepper, eggs, & mustard. Mix well.
6

Shape mixture into a loaf pan or 3-4 quart dish & cover with foil.
7

Cook at 350° for 1 hour or until well done. (IMPORTANT: To avoid a dirty oven, make sure there is a cookie sheet or tray underneath to catch overflowing grease.)
8

For extra taste, take out 10 minutes early and spread ketchup, tomato sauce (my favorite), or diced tomatoes on top. Or see sweet topping below. Return to oven for 10-15 minutes.

Sweet topping: Combine 1-1/2 tbsp brown sugar, 1-1/2 tbsp yellow mustard, 1/4 cup ketchup.
