OMG! This was so good. I didn’t make the gravy, but used my own brown gravy and it was still delicious. Would definitely make this again and would encourage everyone who loves meatloaf to try it. I’m going to try leftovers in grilled sandwiches….
Very good. My husband is a fussy eater. He likes gravy with his meatloaf and mashed potatoes. This is an excellent recipe for anyone that enjoys meatloaf. I will be using this recipe again. My husband likes my recipe, but this is a nice change with the homemade gravy. Thanks Dottie for sharing this recipe.
