ReplyDeleteIt looks and sounds delicious, Debbie...I have to try it because my meatloaf is nothing to write home about!!

This is VERY similar to the one I've been making for years.....it's SO good. Mine has oatmeal instead of bread crumbs and no carrots, but I could try adding those next time!! Mine also has onion soup mix powder instead of onions, so similar flavors. I think the topping makes it!
