BBQ Meatloaf

I just added some beans to my moms meatloaf to stretch the recipe

Loaf:
3/4 lb. Ground Beef
3/4 lb. Ground pork or turkey
1/2 can of garbanzo beans, pureed
1/2 c.lentils, cooked until very tender in beef broth or water, will expand to about 1 cup of cooked lentils.
2 eggs
1/4 c. plain bread crumbs
1 1/2 Tbsp. parsley
1/4 c. water
1/2 onion, chopped
3 Tbsp. prepared horseradish
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. cracked pepper

Sauce:
1 c. Del Monte Chili Sauce
1 c. Catchup
2 tsp. Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp. mustard
dash Tabasco

Combine all of the loaf ingredients and mix well. Shape into 4 to 6 loaves. Combine sauce ingredients. Top loaves with sauce and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Baste 3 or 4 times during cooking.

I have made these loaves and then frozen them with great success. I just combined the meatloaf ingredients, topped with sauce and then froze them until solid before wrapping them in plastic wrap and then tin foil. When ready to use just remove from the freezer the night before and defrost in the fridge. Then bake according to the directions.
