Bacon Mushroom Swiss Meatloaf Recipe

How to make it

---

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place bacon in skillet.
• Cook until crispy.
• Drain bacon pieces with a slotted spoon.
• RESERVE 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in pan.
• Stir in onions and mushrooms.
• Cook until soft.
• Remove from heat.
• In a large bowl, stir together the beef, egg and milk.

• Mix in about half the Swiss cheese.
• Mix in all BUT 1 tablespoon bacon.
• Stir in cornflake crumbs.
• Mix until well blended.
• Shape into a loaf.
• Place in meatloaf pan.
• **We do not use a loaf pan as it allows grease back into the loaf. We normally bake the loaf on a rack placed on a cookie sheet with sides so the grease can drain.
• Bake for 1 hour.
• Remove from oven.
• Drain fat.
• Sprinkle with remaining Swiss and bacon.
• Return to oven.
• Bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
