What's Cooking:  Bacon Mushroom and Swiss Meatloaf

12 ounces chopped raw bacon
1 small white onion, chopped
5 button mushrooms, chopped
1 1/2 pounds extra-lean ground beef
1 egg
1/4 cup evaporated milk
6 ounces shredded Swiss cheese, divided
1/2 cup corn flake crumbs

Preheat oven to 350. Place bacon in a skillet and cook over medium heat
until the pieces are browned. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels.
Discard all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease. Stir in onions and mushrooms,
and cook until soft. Remove from heat.  In a large bowl, stir together beef,
egg, and milk. Stir in the onion and mushrooms. Mix in about 4 ounces of Swiss
cheese, and all but 1 tablespoon of bacon. Stir in cornflake crumbs, and mix
until well blended. Shape into a loaf, and place in a meatloaf pan. Bake in a
preheated oven for 1 hour. Drain fat, and sprinkle with remaining cheese and bacon.
Return to oven, and bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
