SIMPLE APRICOT-GLAZED MEATLOAF



Simple Apricot-Glazed Meatloaf image

I know everyone says their mum's meatloaf is the best and I am one of those who agree--my mum's recipe is the best! This has been one of my favorites since my childhood. While I love it served fresh and hot, a good next-day meatloaf sandwich is also a comfort food. I serve it with a nice arugula salad with cherry tomatoes, raisins, chopped walnuts, and vinaigrette dressing, or for a southern flare--garlic-smashed potatoes and freshly steamed snap green beans. Just yummy deliciousness and mum is always right!

BOBOTIE (SOUTH AFRICAN MEATLOAF)



Bobotie (South African Meatloaf) image

Not your regular meatloaf! This sweet and savory loaf is enhanced with the textures of raisins and almonds and the spiciness of curry. Pleasantly different. If using high quality curry, use 1 1/2 tablespoons; most store bought curries are not as flavorful so use more. If looking for more sweetness, try adding apricot preserves or a fruit chutney.

MEATLOAF WITH RAISINS



Meatloaf With Raisins image

Loving raisins like I do, I transformed my original meatloaf into one that includes raisins, and I find that, once they get over the idea of raisins in a meatloat, many of my guests allow that it is at the very least "interesting" & enjoyable, if not out right delicious!
