Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- Garlic, minced, to taste, optional
- 3 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
- 1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram

- 1 dash white pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1 pound ground chuck
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Method
-
Gather the ingredients.
-
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine oil, onion, and garlic; cook 3 to 4 minutes on high until soft.
-
Combine with oats, 1/2 the tomato sauce, thyme, marjoram, garlic salt, pepper, and egg in a large bowl. Mix in meat with your hands. Gently shape into an 8×4 inch loaf.
-
Place into a 9×5 inch glass loaf pan, making sure the meat mixture doesn’t touch the sides of the pan. Cover pan with microwave-safe waxed paper. Microwave at high power for 5 minutes, then carefully siphon off the juices using a turkey baster.
-
Combine brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and mustard with remaining tomato sauce. Spoon this mixture over the meatloaf, making sure to evenly coat top and sides.
-
Return pan to the microwave, rotating one-half turn. Cover pan with microwave-safe waxed paper and cook at 50% for 15 to 20 minutes or until an instant-read meat thermometer inserted in the center of the loaf registers 160 F.
-
Cover with foil and let stand 5 minutes on a solid surface before serving. (The temperature of the meatloaf will rise about 10 degrees during standing time.)
-
Serve and enjoy!
