Pumpkin Meat Loaf

This instructable was inspired by the instructable's  pumpkin contest. I modified our family's favorite meatloaf recipe and The Pumpkin Meat Loaf was created! Now we have two favorite meatloaf recipes. Follow through and let's make some meatloaf!

Step 1: Ingredients

Ingredients:

1 1/2 pounds Hamburger
1 Cup Corn flakes (you can substitute bread crumbs if you like)
1 Cup Libby's Pumpkin Pie mix 
1 Beaten egg
1 Cup diced onion
1 Cup diced celery
1/2 Cup carrots
1/2 Cup grated Parmesan cheese
French's Classic yellow mustard optional

Utensils: 

Bowls, loaf pan, large spoon, and measuring cups.

Step 2: Combine Ingredients

Pre-heat oven 350 degrees F and Combine ingredients:

Hamburger, egg, onion, celery, Parmesan cheese, Carrots, pumpkin, and Corn flakes.
Mix thoroughly.
Lightly oil the loaf pan.

Step 3: Shape Loaf

Shape the ball into the loaf pan.

Step 4: Bake and Serve

Bake in the oven for one hour, ( We like it well done).
Add mustard if desired.

Step 5: Sunshiine's Final Thoughts

My family really enjoyed this recipe and we all agreed that the mustard set it off! 

I wish to thank everyone for stopping by and have a great fall!

I tried a variation of this: left the meat out, added rice, added chopped almonds, and cayenne. Thanks for sharing. I also voted for you.
