Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together the oats and milk and allow to soak while you get the rest of the ingredients together, at least 3 minutes.

Thinly slice one-quarter of the onion into rings and set aside.

Finely chop the rest of the onion. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, oatmeal mixture, chopped onion, bell pepper, eggs, W orcestershire , ketchup, salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix just until well combined.

Transfer the mixture into a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and shape into a loaf about 5 inches wide and 2 inches high.

Pour the tomato sauce over the meatloaf and sprinkle with the sliced onions. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160 degrees, about 1 hour.

Remove from the oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Serves 8.

In the early 1950’s — There were 2 theaters in Pelham Parkway The Globe and the Pelham. Most of the children packed both theaters on Saturday and Sunday. In the summer time we received our first taste of “Air-Conditioning”.

Thanks to A/C we found an escape from the heat. I think this “way of life” may be responsible for getting a good nights sleep and extending our lives.

Think about it, the next time you have a power failure in the summer time...

The “Cooler” Our Pelham Theater.
