Mexican Meatloaf

Everyone seems to have an opinion about meatloaf - thankfully my family likes it!  I found this recipe somewhere and adapted it for us - it's so good with a salad or veggie, and mashed potatoes.
Mix 1 cup dry seasoned bread crumbs with 1/2 c. water.  Add to 2 lbs. lean ground beef, 1 c. mild salsa, 1 egg, and 1/2  small onion and a small bunch of cilantro, chopped.  At this point I put it in a zip loc and label it for the freezer.  (It was part of my Freezer meals stash)
 Flash forward to today, a little over a month after I put it together...I had a sewing day planned,
so this was handy!
It kinda fell apart a little, but take my word for it - it was very tasty!  I usually drown meatloaf in ketchup on my plate...yuuuum.  But this really needs no extra anything.  And the cilantro gave it a nice flavor.

I've always wanted to try meatloaf in a crock pot - anyone out there ever try that?
