Slow-Cooker Porcupine Meatloaf

In a large bowl combine:

1½ lb lean ground beef
½ cup uncooked minute rice
½ onion, chopped
1 T Worcestershire sauce
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
1 egg

In a smaller bowl combine:

1 can tomato soup
½ cup chunky salsa
¼ cup water

When the meat mixture is combined, add ½ cup from the small bowl, and mix together. Shape into a loaf and fit it into your slow cooker. Pour rest of the small bowl on top and cook on low for 7-9 hours. Serve with a garden salad and cheese bread.

Hint: To make it easier to lift the loaf from cooker when done, use 1" wide folded strips of tinfoil, long enough to line the cooker bowl with extra hanging over the sides, and use as lifters when the loaf is done. (I use the new slow cooker liners)
