Dead Man over Worms (Meatloaf over Spaghetti Noodles)

3 eggs
2/3 cup milk
2 slices of bread torn into pieces
1 c. oatmeal
½ c. grated carrot
½ c. chopped onion
1c. Shredded Cheddar
1 T. parsley
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
1lb. lean ground beef
1 lb. mild Italian sausage
2-3 c. cooked red quinoa
1 (16oz) package spaghetti noodles

Topping
1 c. ketchup
1 c. packed br. sugar
2 tsp. prepared mustard
1/8 c. xagave or ¼ c. maple syrup
1 tsp. maple flavoring

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In large bowl beat the eggs, add milk, bread, and oatmeal. Stir in carrots, onions, cheese, herbs, and seasonings. Add beef, sausage, and red quinoa and mix well. In a shallow baking dish shape beef mixture into the shape of a body. Round ball for head, oval shape for body, mounding up the tummy. Shape arms and place next to body . Shape legs and place next to each other, not apart. Smooth meatloaf so the “seams” are not apparent. Bake for 30-45 min., until meat is cooked through.
While baking combine topping ingredients. Cook spaghetti noodles with a drop of green food coloring, rinse and set aside.

After 45 minutes, spoon half of the topping over the meatloaf, return to oven and continue baking for 15-20 min. remove from oven and let stand for 10 min.
Put noodles on tray, carefully place meatloaf on top of noodles, and spoon the rest of the sauce on. Place a knife in the “heart” of the meatloaf and be ready for everyone to “Cut-up!”
