My Mom's Meatloaf

1 lb ground round
1/2 cup crushed crackers or oatmeal
1 egg
3/4 cup ketchup
1 Tbsp mustard
dash pepper
1 small onion
2 pieces celery
1/2 clove garlic or 1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 green pepper

*Chop veggies.
*Mix all together.
*Bake in loaf pan 350 for 45-60 min.

Notes:
I ate and loved this recipe growing up. Since then, I have found a couple other recipes I like too, but this one is still very good to me.
This recipe can also be used to make meatballs--just shape them into meatballs, and bake in a casserole dish or cook on stovetop. Drain grease. You can add a can of cream of mushroom or celery soup or a can of beef gravy for sauce.
You can also lower the temp of this recipe to 250 and cook longer-like to go to church.
