Place between two large sheets of wax paper and roll into a rectangle about 14 x 10-inches. Remove the top paper and spread the meat with the mashed potatoes. Sprinkle with the chopped pepper or onion or both.
Roll the mixture jelly roll fashion, seal the outside edge, and place in a shallow greased baking pan, seam side down.
Bake in a preheated 350\u00b0 oven for 45 minutes.
Drain off excess fat and drizzle the syrup on top of the loaf.
Bake 25 minutes more or until the juices are clear and the loaf is golden brown.
