Campbells Meatloaf recipe

Back in the late 60s early 70s, Campbells had a recipe on their
Vegetarian Vegetable soup label for meatloaf. My mom used to make it
all the time. I want to surprise her with it for her birthday, but I
can't find the label she kept with the recipe on it. I know it had 2
parts ground beef to 1 part ground pork and contained a beaten egg and
oatmeal, but I have no idea of the proportions or other ingrdients.

I've tried Campbells recipe site, but all the recipes they have are
updated modern versions, and I want to make it "Like mom used to make"

Can anybody help.
 
I did a search and found this but see it doesn't have oatmeal. Think
you could substitue the oatmeal for the bread crumbs.

Let me warn you, though...nothing tastes as good as Mom's
meatloaf..even using the same recipe!

Wow, my mom still makes her meatloaf like that and I never knew it came
from the can of Campbell's soup! She uses a can (undiluted) of
vegetarian vegetable, one beaten egg and handful or so of fresh
breadcrumbs (not oatmeal) to about 2 lbs. of ground beef. Salt and
pepper too. Hope your mom has a happy birthday!

Here's another recipe similar to your description:

Meatloaf

2 pounds of ground beef
1 pound ground pork
Onion flakes, reconstructed with water.
Worcestershire sauce
Parsley flakes
1 Egg (uncooked)
1/2 cup of oatmeal(uncooked)
Dash of salt and pepper.

Stirr together and place in a 10 by 10 pan in the shape of a loaf about
6 x 10 in size. Ketchup is poured over the top.
Cook it for about 1 hour in a 375 degree oven. .

Anybody actually use these "onion flakes"? i have seen a jar of cooked
and dried onions for sale in our local "Chinatown" and am tempted to
purchase a jar of them, just cause the 'elderly relative' is a onion lover.

I tried onion powder once but thought it was awful.

Not much better, but a little. I think there's less surface area. I
keep a little container around for emergencies.

I don't know about the ones you saw, but I don't think they are usually
cooked.

I also like to use it for my lowfat yoghurt dill dip for raw vegetables.
The yoghurt is too thin to make a good dip. Adding dried dill weed,
dried chives, dried parsley and these onions sucks up some moisture. I
leave it overnight and by the next day it is a little thicker.

I grabbed this recipe off the Campbells discussion board. I use onion
flakes in soups sometimes when I'm too lazy to chop raw onions. They
have a different flavor than fresh onions, but their not bad.

I just got back from Chinatown with my new bottle of "Hanh Phi"
echalotes frits - fried red onions. Product of Vietnam, a little oil
but no cholesterol, no sugar, small amount of salt.

And very tasty, quite good right out of the jar, not in a liquid, sort
of dried but not completely, i think they will be very good on a baked
potato, sprinkled on soup, in salads, meat loaf, scrambled eggs or
omelettes etc. $1.50 for 227 gr.
