- In a saute pan, on medium heat, heart the oil. Brown the onion and celery, stirring occasionally for about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Watch that the garlic does not burn. Onion, celery and garlic should be soft. Turn off heat.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients to make the meatloaf, including the browned onion-garlic-celery mix. Add 1/4°C of the pre-mixed glaze. Mix quickly just to combine. don't overwork the mixture or you'll get a compacted loaf.
- Loosely form the mixture into a loaf-like shape and lightly press into a 9" x 5" loaf pan. Spread the remaining glaze evenly on top of the meatloaf. Spread as much as you'd like. You don't have to use it all.
- Bake at 325 degrees F for 1 hour.
- Make thick slices of meatloaf. Serve meatloaf hot, drizzling pan juices over each slice. goes great with mashed potatoes and peas and carrots.

I am married and mother to an adult son, two rescue dogs; a small pug mix and a young Yorkshire Terrier. I prefer baking to cooking. I have a wonderful husband who will clean-up after I do the cooking.
