MEATLOAF:

2 lb. ground beef or turkey
1 lb. ground Italian sausage
2 c. bread crumbs
2 eggs
1 pkg. onion soup mix
1/2 c. water

SAUCE:

All are optional:

Canned tomatoes
Catsup
Mustard
Brown sugar or honey
Worcestershire
Barbecue sauce

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Soak onion, soup mix in water for 5 minutes. Mix together with other meat loaf ingredients. Form into loaf shape and place in large loaf pan.

Here's the fun. Mix sauce ingredients together in separate bowl. Add any flavors you like. I don't measure anything, taste as you go. Pour sauce over top. Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes and a salad.
