Classic Meatloaf
Ingredients:1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 egg, beaten
1 cup of milk oatmeal
1/4 cup chopped onion (I like to do this while watching my story, The Guiding Light. I’m usually crying anyway, so that’s makes it alright!)
3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. celery salt
1/4 tsp. garlic salt
1 tbsp. ketchup
1 tbsp. horseradish (optional)
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

Directions:Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and this will bake for 1 and a half hours.
Mix all of your ingredients together and shape it into a loaf and place in baking pan.

Cream Cheese Dip

Ingredients:
1 head Celery
8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
1 bottle of Old English cheese
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup sweet onion, very finely chopped
1 Tablespoon Bottled Sweet Roasted Pepper (very finely chopped)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup Pecans, finely chopped

Directions:You will want to wash and clean celery well. Cut off the widest, whitish end of each stalk and then cut each stalk into 3-inch pieces. Slice the rounded portion off the bottom so it will lay flat on the serving platter. Allow to dry. Lightly whip the cream cheese with the Old English cheese. (5 seconds in Microwave will make it more manageable). Mix in Worcestershire sauce, onions, roasted pepper, garlic powder and pecans.Mix well. Fill the celery with the mixture. Chill well before serving. Perfect for your next Tupperware Party!
