Ingredients

2 c. soft bread crumbs
3/4 c. minced onion
1/4 c. minced green onion
1/2 c. catsup
2 eggs

2 Tbsp. bottled horseradish

Heat oven to 400\u00b0.
Prepare bread crumbs (remove crust, if desired).
Mince onion and green pepper.
Break eggs into a large bowl; beat slightly with fork.
Add meat. Toss very lightly until just blended.
(Overmixing tends to toughen loaf.)

Turn into greased loaf pan and smooth into shape.
