Aussie Meatloaf

Outstanding meatloaf receipe. The best I have had. I followed the receipe as written, except I added some additional ingredients; specifically, chopped celery and red pepper. I also cooked the onions first. I then adapted it to my normal meatloaf receipe in that I put one half of the meatloaf mixture in the loaf pan and topped it with spinish, chesse slices and cooked ham then topped it with the other half of the mixture. As I said earlier, it was great
