Made it with a pound of beef and a pound of ground turkey. Turned out awesome. Top with sour cream.

This is a real easy twist on the traditional meatloaf and everyone I tell about it is intrigued. I also dice up some jalapeno peppers and mix them in to give the meatloaf a little bit more of a twist.

Made this tonight for dinner and we really enjoyed it! I've made this recipe before using spaghetti sauce or bar-b-que sauce (without the chili powder) and putting mozzarella cheese on top. This was a nice change from the other two sauces. I will be making this again.

My family LOVED this meatloaf. The only thing I would probably change is change the stuffing mix for crackers. I think it made it a little "mushy" I also accidentally left out the rotel. Still tasted fine without it.

Only meatloaf I'll ever make. So good. I use the leftovers to make meatloaf grilled cheese sandwiches. Yum!

I made this but used a can of Roteli diced tomatoe's and green chili's with the liquid instead of the water. I added cheese to the meat and on top the last 10 minutes. We like it, I will make again.

Fantastic meatloaf! I will add 1/4 c chopped onions next time, though it was great as is! Easy to make and my family loved it!
