Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs of hamburger
- half of green pepper
- half an onion
- 12 small carrots
- cup of dry oatmeal or bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- half cup of brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- cheese
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Finely chop the green pepper and onion and grate the carrots.
- Mix the beef, vegetables, oats or breadcrumbs, ketchup, brown sugar and eggs just until combined.
- Put half the mixture in a foil-lined loaf pan, add a layer of cheese and cover with the remaining meat mixture. Seal the edges so the cheese is enclosed.
- Bake for 1 1/2–2 hours, loosely covering the top with foil if it browns too quickly, until the center reaches 160°F (71°C). Rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
