Bacon-Wrapped Meat Loaf

• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons canola oil
• 1/2 cup 2% milk
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 2/3 cup crushed saltines
• 1/3 cup minced fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1/2 pound ground pork
• 1/2 pound ground veal
• 9 slices bacon strips
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup cider vinegar

1. In a small skillet, saute onion and garlic in oil for 4-5 minutes or until tender.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon, pepper sauce, saltine, parsley and seasonings; stir in onion mixture. Crumble meats over mixture and mix well. With wet hands, shape into a loaf and place in a greased foil-lined 13-in.x 9-in. baking dish.
3. In a small saucepan, combine the sauce ingredients; cook and stir until the sugar is dissolved and sauce has thickened. Spoon some sauce over loaf; place bacon over top.
