This is a great tasting and scary meatloaf Our guests got a big kick out of it I prefer to bake my meatloaf on a slotted broiler pan to let the grease drip off You can use spicy sausage but I prefer a mild sausage

Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Mix together the ground beef
sausage
onion
saltine cracker crumbs
beaten eggs
and cajun seasoning in a bowl until well combined. In a large baking dish
form the meat loaf mixture into a Halfling shape
with a large head
2 stubby legs
and 2 upraised arms.
Bake in the preheated oven until the meatloaf is no longer pink inside and just starting to turn brown
about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (70 degrees C).
To decorate the meatloaf's head
pick out about 14 corn kernels
and arrange them into teeth. Place 1 small green pepper slice on each side of the creature's head for ears; place two pickle slices on the face for eyes
then place 2 black olive halves
cut sides down
in the pickle slices to finish the eyes. One more olive half forms the nose. Surround the monster with a background of ketchup "blood
" and bake until browned
about 10 more minutes.
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before serving. Just before serving
