Directions

1
Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until partially cooked but not crisp. Drain on paper towels; set aside.

2
Combine the egg, milk, Worcestershire sauce, carrots, green pepper, crackers, 1/2 cup cheese, onion and seasonings in a large bowl. Crumble beef over mixture; mix lightly but thoroughly.
3
Shape into 5 loaves. Arrange around the edge of a microwave-safe deep-dish pie plate; top each with a strip of bacon.
4
Cover and microwave on high for 8-10 minutes or until meat is no longer pink and a thermometer reads 160°. Spread ketchup over tops and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Let stand for 5 minutes.
