Let’s get the facts straight right from the beginning … I HATE MEATLOAF! Well, until now! My family loves meat loaf, but never gets it, because I hate it! I finally decided to be nice and make it because I found a recipe that had such great reviews.
This recipe was so easy to put together. I actually sat at the kitchen table with all of my ingredients and had it together in minutes. It comes out of the oven so juicy, and simply yummy. I have only had meatloaf a few times in the past, and it’s always very dry. You won't have to worry about that with this recipe!
One piece of information I will give you is that when you initally put it all together it seems very wet, but this is what keeps it moist while it's baking. This got rave reviews in my house … even from me! Original recipe
