Meatloaf

 We had some cooler weather last week which sent me scrambling to find some comfort food recipes. This meatloaf recipe is great with mashed potatoes and veges. It has a really yummy sauce that is poured on top before cooking that makes it more than just a plain old meatloaf. It isn't exactly healthy so I recommend watching your portion size and serving it with lots of delicious veges! This makes enough for our family to have for 2 dinners.
