Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine all ingredients except the bacon slices. Shape the mixture into an oval loaf. Place the loaf on a rack (instead of a rack, I put my meat loaf on sliced carrot sticks) in a baking pan or pie plate. Top the loaf with the bacon slices. Bake one and one-half hours. Can be served with a mushroom sauce, brown gravy or tomato sauce. Enjoy!
