Not much harder to make than plain meat loaf, this dressed-up version is nice enough for company.

    Great recipe , easy prep and outstanding taste. Next time, and that will be soon, I will add some mushrooms and some red pepper flakes. Ditch the wax paper suggestion...it turned to mush trying to roll this bad boy...stick with foil. This was so good!

    Making dinner is a rare thing for me, but I have been craving meatloaf for some time. I tried this and it will be very hard to go back to regular meatloaf again. INCREDIBLE taste. My only issue was rolling the meat together, but that will come with practice. LOVED THIS dish.
