Fabulously Easy Meatloaf

Favorite meat loaf
-Pam Cole, my Grandma

2 cans tomato sauce (8 ounces)
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tsp prepared mustard
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 medium onion, minced (if you can find a sweet onion it's great)
1/4 cup bread or cracker crumbs
2 pounds ground beef (I usually use ground turkey)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

In small bowl combine tomato sauce, brown sugar and mustard. Set aside. In large mixing bowl combine eggs, onion, crumbs, ground beef, salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup of tomato sauce mixture and stir thoroughly. Place meat mixture in ring mold. Pour remaining tomato sauce mixture over top of meat. Cook, uncovered, in microwave - 25 minutes in plastic mold, or 18 minutes in silicone mold, or 22 minutes in glass pan. ( We had to figure out these times each time we bought a new mold! You'll have to experiment.)
