RO-TEL MEATLOAF 
1 1/2 lb. ground beef
3 slices bread, torn into small pieces
1 egg
1 (10 oz.) can Ro-tel tomatoes with green chilis
1 small onion, chopped fine
2 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/3 chili sauce (may use ketchup)

Preheat oven to 375°F. Combine all ingredients except chili sauce or ketchup. Blend well.

Press into an ungreased loaf pan. Bake, covered, for 1 hour. Drain drippings

Spoon chili sauce or ketchup over meat loaf. Bake uncovered an additional 15 minutes. Let stand about 10 minutes before serving.

This meat loaf is very moist. If you want a firmer loaf, use another slice of bread in the preparation. This is great with mashed potatoes, and the leftovers (if any) reheat well in the microwave.

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