OUR FAMILY'S FAVORITE MEAT LOAF



OUR FAMILY'S FAVORITE MEAT LOAF image

This is the good ol' meat loaf I grew up with. I didn't think there was any other kind for years. I was kind of shocked when my mother admitted that she got the recipe from the Quaker Oats box. But who cares? It's easy and it's GOOD! I believe she often served it with baked beans on the side.
