In my humble opinion, there is nothing better than a nice meatloaf. It is soul food, not to mention a hearty comfort food. When I was young, my mom always had a weekly menu. I remember being excited because every Thursday night was meatloaf night. I would rush home from school and drool over the smell of her baking meatloaf.
That was the problem as I grew older and life got busier. It was always such a painstaking effort waiting for that yummy meatloaf to bake. Then I heard about the no bake microwave meatloaf and have never looked back. After perfecting the recipe, finally, I could have that ever so delicious meatloaf in 20 minutes flat.
Oh, I forgot to mention that if you have some left over, meatloaf sandwiches are wonderful.
