BASIC MEAT LOAF (MICROWAVE) 
1 slice bread, torn in sm. pieces
1/4 c. chopped celery
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 clove garlic, minced
1 sm. onion, chopped
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 lbs. lean ground beef
1/4 c. catsup

Mix bread, celery, egg, garlic, onion, salt and pepper. Crumble ground beef into mixture; blend thoroughly. Press into 9"x5" loaf pan (microwaveable). Microwave on high until internal temperature reaches 150 degrees, 13 to 15 minutes. If using oven other than carousel, rotate meat loaf once or twice during cooking. Spread with catsup. Microwave at medium until catsup is heated, 2 to 3 minutes. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
