Recipe: Meatloaf

Sometimes, I just want good, old-fashioned, home cooking, comfort foods. And what's more of a old-fashioned comfort food than meatloaf? But a good meatloaf recipe is sometimes hard to find (unless your grandmother will share hers).

This one was delicious, and will be one that you will be passing down to your children (and you're friends and family will be asking for).
