Smith's Genghis Khan Meat Loaf

Ingredients
1 can hominy,yellow
1/2 can garbanzo beans
2 bunches radishes
4-5 large sticks of celery, sliced
Lots of small onions, 1" in diameter
3-4 large carrots, coined
1 green pepper, chopped
1 stick of soda crackers
1-2 cups rice
6 large mixing spoons of mustard
1/2-1 cup barbecue sauce
1 small can tomato paste
6-7 eggs
3 lbs. hamburger, lean
1-1.5 lbs. pork sausage, ground
Salt, pepper to taste

Wash hands up to elbows and clean under fingernails

Throw everything into a basin, and mix by hand, by letting the goop run between your fingers. For tactile pleasure, smooth it out and then plop down the rice, crackers, sauces, etc. and manually mix some more. Measurements are approximate. The rice absorbs and holds moisture. Instant rice will do, if desired. Too much rice makes the meat loaf seem like a pin cushion, if it's long-cooking rice.

Onions are a special treat. You cut open the meat loaf, and they surprise the guest. They melt into your mouth like hunks of butter.

Additional veggies can be placed around the meat loaf after it's placed in a greased pan to cook. Cook at 350 F in a pre-heated oven for approximately two hours. Baste off the fat that gathers around it and add water or wine to cook the veggies.

NOTE: The combination provides a variety of textures and a complete meal, except for utensils and drinks. Serves at least one entire battalion from Genghis Khan's hordes.
