The Best Meatloaf You Will Ever Eat!

So, yesterday I had a very long day. I had off work, but still had a lot to do. I had to take Luke to get some blood work done, had an appointment with my local Healthy Families coordinator, I had my own doctor's appointment, then had a WIC appointment, and had to go to the grocery store. Needless to say, when I got home around 6:30pm, I was not in the mood to cook! So, I fell to my go-to meal...Meatloaf. So many people don't like the taste of meatloaf. Why? I'm not too sure. I do remember being a kid and dreading meatloaf night though. My mom's recipe wasn't the best to say the least. So, when I got married I tried at least 5 or 6 meatloaf recipes until I found one we really liked. And here it is...

* Thank you to Kraft Recipes for coming up with an awesome meatloaf recipe! Of course, I did tweak it a little bit. :-)

I normally make some corn or broccoli as a side and a Lipton rice or pasta side to go with this dish.

Enjoy!
