Tex-Mex Meatloaf

Ingredients

1 lb. lean ground beef, chicken, or turkey
1 cup cooked rice
1/2 cup crushed crackers or breadcrumbs
1 medium onion, diced
1 can diced tomatoes (with juice)
1 can diced green chiles
2 eggs
Dash of curry powder
Generous amount of garlic powder
Salt/pepper to taste
Salsa (optional)

Instructions

Mix all ingredients except salsa until thoroughly
combined. Spray large loaf pan with non-stick spray. Pat
mixture into pan and bake at 350 degrees until center is
firm and top is brown — about 1 hour (or a little more),
depending on pan size and oven. Or bake in crockpot all
day on low – half day on High (no more than 4 hours).
Allow to cool a little before slicing for nicer-looking
presentation — it tends to fall apart when very hot.
Serve with warm salsa as a sauce.
