2 lb. lean ground beef
2 eggs
1 (15 oz.) can Italian stewed tomatoes (undrained), divided
1 (15 oz.) can Italian tomato sauce, divided
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 white or yellow onion (chopped)
2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper (seasoned pepper the best), to taste
garlic powder, to taste
3 to 5 thick bacon slices (for top)

Mix all (except bacon) retaining 1/3 of stewed tomatoes and 1/3 of tomato sauce. Shape into your favorite Pyrex pan (to edges). Cut up remaining stewed tomatoes, mix with tomato sauce and pour over top of loaf. Top with bacon slices.

Cook at 400°F for 1 hour (draining fat once) or until bacon is fully cooked. Let breathe for 20 minutes before serving.
