Directions:
SAUCE (You can make the sauce a day or so ahead if you want)
In a skillet add live oil, sauté onions and garlic until translucent
Add the red peppers – cook until soft
Add tomatoes and tomato paste – let simmer
Add parsley, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce
Season with salt and pepper – let simmer for about 5 minutes
Remove from the heat and let cool

Preheat oven to 350

MEATLOAF:
In a large bowl mix the ground beef, bread crumbs, seasonings, eggs and about 1 cup of
the tomato sauce (after you mix everything you might want to add more sauce depending on the size of the meatloaf)

Lightly oil a baking sheet and mold the meatloaf.
Coat the top of the meatloaf with some tomato sauce
Lay the bacon over the tomato sauce and bake for about 1-1/2 hours
Rotate the meatloaf every now and then so it cooks evenly
Serve with the remaining tomato sauce on the side.
