Directions:
Mix all glaze ingredients in small saucepan; set aside.
For the meat loaf: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in medium skillet. Add onion; saute for 3 minutes. Add garlic to onions and saute for 2 minutes. Set aside to cool while preparing remaining ingredients.
Mix eggs with thyme, salt, pepper, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, pepper sauce and yogurt. Add egg mixture to meat in large bowl along with oatmeal, parsley and cooked onion and garlic; mix with fork until evenly blended and meat mixture does not stick to bowl. (If mixture sticks, add additional yogurt, a couple of tablespoons at a time, until meat no longer sticks.)
Turn meat mixture onto work surface. With wet hands, pat mixture into approximately 9 x 5-inch loaf shape. Place on foil-lined shallow baking pan. Brush with half the glaze.
Bake loaf until meat thermometer registers 160 degrees, about 1 hour. Cool at least 20 minutes. Simmer remaining glaze over medium heat until thickened slightly. Slice meat loaf and serve with extra glaze and Dijon mustard.
