Nothing could get us kids home faster, than knowing mom was making meat loaf for dinner! Mouths were drooling and our bellies were groaning all the way home. She made it from scratch and there was never a crumb left over.  I never thought to ask her for the recipe, but one day I found one Online that reminded me of how I thought her meat loaf tasted. I believe it came from AllRecipes.com. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/easy-meatloaf/    I have modified it from the original version and we like it better. It reminds me of my mom's meat loaf! Every time I make this recipe, I get many compliments and I never have left overs.

This looks awesome! I'm gonna try this. My wife is not a meatloaf fan, so I have to make it for myself. I'll let you know how it turns out when I make it :)

Thanks! I like it because it has a tangy flavor. In the comment section Jayuu made reference to a great recipe that I want to try, it looks totally awesome!

Oh my goodness that recipe looks and sounds so good. That was not fair, now I am starving and this recipe is going to haunt me until I make it! Thanks for sharing your secret though. The ingredients sound unusual which entices me that much more. I have a hunch it will be going to my families favorite recipes! Have a unexpected simple pleasures day on me! Sunshiine

That looks amazing! I like lots of veg in mine too. I also top mine with a mix of ketchup and sriracha - gives it a good kick. :D

Thanks Jessy! I will have to look that up. I have never heard of it before. OK, I think I have tried it before. That sounds very good. It might be hard to find here but I will see the next time I buy groceries. I like to add a kick to food but I have to be so careful or hubby won't eat it. I love jalapenos! Have a nice night!
