Makeover - How We Did It

We've made over this traditional entree and cut more than half the fat by using extra-lean ground beef and egg whites instead of whole eggs. As a result, this saves 6g of fat per serving.

How to Safely Prepare a Meatloaf

After shaping a meatl oaf with your hands, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly with soap and hot water for at least 20 sec. A quick rinse under the faucet is not enough to kill any harmful bacteria.

I made this meatloaf for my husband and two teenage boys. They really liked it. The stuffing was a great filler full of flavor.

I made this recipe for my husband, my mother and myself. Since it was for three of us I made a half of recipe. It turned out WONDERFUL. Everyone made many comments on how great it was. Even my picky husband wants me to make it again. The one thing that I didn't do was add the cheese and it was still great.

I've made a different meatloaf recipe just about everytime I've made meatloaf. I won't be needing to do that anymore. I did use both beef and pork in my version, but I doubt the end result would be much different. Loved it.

My husband said this was the best meatloaf he had ever tasted! It was my first one to ever bake, too! I halved the recipe and it still turned out great!!

This is the first meatloaf I ever made and my husband and brother-in-law loved it!! I used ground beef but next time will use ground sirloin to cut out more fat.

Everyone I have made this for has seconds, even my 9-year old nephew! I don't see how anyone can say it is bland because I have sampled bland meatloaf before and this just isn't it. Using stuffing instead of bread crumbs is an excellent touch.
