Mustard Glazed Meatloaf - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
12 saltine crackers, crushed
1/2 cup milk
1 small onion, finely chopped
1/3 cup fresh mushrooms or 1/3 cup sweet green pepper, finely chopped
2 tablespoons minced parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sage
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard or 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350*F. Mix the ground beef, crackers, milk, onion, mushrooms or green pepper, parsley, salt, sage, black pepper and eggs. Shape the mixture into an 8x4 inch loaf and place in a shallow baking pan. (I have one of those 2 piece meatloaf pans where the grease drips to the bottom and I love it!).
Bake for approximately 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 170*F.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, lemon juice and mustard. Spread over the meatloaf and return to the oven for 10 minutes.
