Gluten Free Sunday Meatloaf Dinner

Sunday evening and it's storming outside, so I made a cozy dinner for Hubby and put on a movie.  Meatloaf is perfect for a lazy Sunday, just mix it up and pop it in the oven.  Then watch your movie while the house fills with delicious aromas...

I pretty much toss in the ingredients after so many years of making this, but I'll try to estimate my amounts for you.

 I have a HUGE metal bowl to mix it all in.  Then I pop on my surgical gloves and mix it all together

Form your loaf in the bowl and place in a medium loaf pan.   I pour off the grease several times during cooking but be very careful.
