Meatloaf In A Blanket - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 loaf unsliced French bread (sour dough is great, round loaves are easiest to work with)
1/2 cup low-fat milk
1 bunch fresh parsley
1 tomatoes
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 garlic clove, crushed
pepper
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1/2 lb ground lean pork
1 hot Italian sausage, ground
1 tablespoon butter

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350.
Slice off a 7-inch circle from the top of the loaf and scoop out enough bread to leave about a 1/2-inch thick shell. Save the top of the crust for a \"lid.\".
In a food processor or blender, process the bread into crumbs. (You'll need one cup. If there's extra, save it for another recipe.).
Put 1 cup bread crumbs in a large mixing bowl, add milk, and let stand for 5 minutes.
Finely chop parsley and add to bowl.
Dice tomato and add to bowl.
Add everything else but the butter to the bowl, roll up your sleeves, and mix well.
Pack meat mixture into bread shell. Replace top.
Rub butter on bread.
Wrap bread in foil and bake at 350 for 2 hours.
Use a serrated knife to cut loaf into wedges and serve.
