Veal and Mushroom Meatloaf with Bacon

The original version of this recipe, from Dine with Your Friends, published in 1936 by the Women's Faculty Club of Northwestern University Medical School, called for a mixture of boiled ham and ground veal. We substituted bacon for the ham to add a nice hint of smokiness.

Classic Meatloaf with Creamy Onion Gravy

This meatloaf boasts a mixture of ground beef and pork, along with grated cheese, which melts as it bakes. The creamy onion gravy served alongside is optional, but takes this meatloaf over the top. The recipe makes enough meatloaf for a crowd, so you may have leftovers. Cut the leftover meatloaf into thick slices and brown in a skillet to serve, alongside the onion gravy.
