This is a great recipe. I made the 6 patties for the freezer.My husband & I ate two and thought they were wonderful and very impressive. I am going to use the other 4 for guest. I will be making these again.

These were great, my hubby loved them. First time I made it I had about half the stuffing the other half was panko bread crumbs (all I had) and more meat - they were better. Second time I made it as written except BBQ sauce (I don't like it) and it was very bready but still good.

This is a fabulous recipe. I double the recipe each time I make them and give 6 to my elderly mother, she just loves them and the single serving size is perfect and easy for her to bake.

I did not freeze these. I made them and then baked them immediately for 30 minutes and they were amzing. I have passed this recipe around. I will definitely make this again.

Excellent! I had surprise guests for supper recently and it was so nice to be able to pop these right out of the freezer. They taste good and look special.

No words to describe how good this is!!! my 6yr old even ate it and she is a VERY picky eater! Husband loved them and he's not a big meatloaf fan; i get a request at least once a week to make these!

My family loved this recipe. I had to make two versions - a few patties with my normal recipe and a few with this recipe. Both were a success!

I wish I could taste more of the Stove Top, it was an okay recipe but probably wouldnt make it again.

These were pretty awesome, even my kids loved them. I left out the green onions because my kids don't like them.

This was an ok recipe. I used the low-sodium version of StoveTop Stuffing. In addition, I only used about 3/4 of the package instead of the whole package (which was what the recipe called for). I'm glad I did bc my husband thought it was too much stuffing and I didn't even use the full amount. I will make it again but will play around with the ingredients more to find the right blend for my family's tastes.
