Super Easy Meatloaf

This is a recipe I have adapted from my dear friend Lyn Salmond, who actually got the recipe off her mother!  It's super easy, and can be adapted to any sort of minced meat, and often I throw in a few veges like grated carrot or zucchini to 'bulk' it up a bit. Really good winter evening meal and it looks like you've been slaving away for hours!
