Cheddar Meatloaf

I have made this meatloaf about 10 times, and it is just as good every time.
Serves: 4

Ingedients
1 1/2 pounds meatloaf mix (pork, veal, beef)
1/2 crushed Cheez-It crackers
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
2 bay leaves (optional)

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the meat, crushed crackers, cheddar cheese, and onion soup mix in a large bowl until well combined. Whisk the eggs, ketchup, and worcestershire in a separate bowl until smooth. Mix the eggs into the meat until evenly combined. Press into a 9x5 inch loaf pan and stick bay leaves into loaf, making sure they can be removed when finished cooking. Bake until the meatloaf is 160 degrees (about 40 minutes.) Enjoy!
