Meatloaf

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 375F

2. 2

   Combine milk and breadcrumbs, stir and let stand for 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Finely chop the carrots, celery, onion and garlic (or blitz with a food processor)

4. 4

   In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients (except the bacon) and mix well - it helps to use your hands.

5. 5

   Shape the mixture into a loaf (I transfer the mix to a loaf pan and then invert onto a roasting rack). Slice each piece of bacon in half and layer the six strips width-wise across the top of the meat loaf.

6. 6

   Bake for 1 hour or until a meat thermometer shows an internal temperature of 160F.
