This was a quick, easy and delicious way to use leftover stuffing. I made it the day after Christmas and the mix of flavors was incredible. I served it with the leftover mashed potatoes and veggies.
Delicious!

I made this meatloaf for my family after having made them sick the last time I attempted meatloaf...It was a HUGE hit! They loved it so much, they ask for it almost every week!
Good and really easy

This is a really easy and good recipe to make not just on thanksgiving but any time of the year. I like to cook healthy for me and my family so actually what I do is that I replace the veal, beef and pork and instead I use ground turkey, I do not use the stuffing and I also don?t use the parmesan cheese that the recipe asks for the meatloaf so I basically just sprinkle some cheese on the top after the sauce and is absolutely delicious. I haven?t make it with the stuffing but I can tell you that without it is just fine and it won?t take you more than 10 minutes to mix all the ingredients and the rest of the time the oven will do it for you. Excellent!

I made the meatloaf except put ketchup on top instead of the cheese and marinara- Delicious!!! It was definitely a big hit
My stuffing is almost gone.

Thank you for sharing the great way to use up the leftover! I might just stuff whatever I have in my fridge to make this meatloaf again. I didn't have a big enough loaf pan, so I couldn't put all the cheese and marinara sauce. I ended up putting them onto the individual plate when we eat, it worked out just fine! FYI, I used another Giada's recipe, "Turkey Bolognese" and used up the dark meat, yay.

everyone must try this recipe. i always thought meatloaf = dry & heavy. this recipe proved me wrong. it was so moist and fluffy. my husband and i LOVED it. i didn't use veal just because i don't really like it. and i used a half package of stove top suffing (preapre as directed in the box). i didn't have provolone, so used shredded mozzarella instead. i will make this again!!
Huge Hit in my house

My family really enjoyed this. Our stuffing was definitely not italian-style, so I omitted the provolone cheese on top and instead used a mixture of ketchup and dried mustard with brown sugar. It carmelized nicely on top.

What a great idea for meatloaf! I used 3/4 ground turkey and 1/4 ground sirloin and it was still juicy and delicious. What an imagination, Giada! Thanks!

I'm eating this right now and it's absolutely wonderful. I even used Stove-Top stuffing, rather than the stuffing the recipe calls for, and it turned out juicy and flavorful.

I was very happy with the outcome of this dish. I wasn't for sure if I should had the stuffing in the middle, but I said, what the heck. I'm very happy that I did. I forgot to use the ketchup and the garlic, but it was so, so good anyways. I'm happy that there's a good receipe to use for leftovers:)
Fantastic

THe most delicious, moist, great blending of flavors I have ever had in a meatloaf. I will make this again. I used sharp provolone and it was a little too smelly cooking. Will use a more milder cheese next time or regular provolone.
Woot!

Yesterday we had thanksgiving at our house. I tried Giada's ciabbata-chestnut and pancetta dressing and boy was it good. Today my husband made the stuffed meatloaf and I do believe it is the best I 've ever had.
Using veal is unfortunate

User: Anonymous User Rating:
I am always happy with Giada's recipes except the onew in which she uses veal. I suppose if she would educate herself on the disturbing, cruel ways they raise calves in order to make "veal", she may find a substitute. Veal is made by taking a calf away from his/her mother immediately following birth and placing them in a small, confined area (similar to a box) allowing little or no light in and no movement. The idea is to feed them a diet consisting of only milk and sometimes they suspend the calf above ground so the calf cannot move; usually the "box" they live in is sufficient in keeping them standing 24-7 without having to take a step. The slaughtering of all creatures is sad, but calves that are raised to be turned into veal is the utmost in animal cruelty today.
Exquisite

wow ! This meat loaf was great ! I just used pork and beek instead of pork beef and veal and it still came out great ! Instead of maranara sauce to top it off I used salsa. I wasn't so sure about it at first but my dad told me it would be good and the salsa was awesome with it ! I loved the provolone cheese on to it was great ! All of my family loved it and my dad even said it was better than his dinner he had at carabas ! WOW AND CARABAS IS AWESOME ! It was really great meat loaf I just wish I knew a way to get the inside all crunchy and just as flavorful as the outside ! :-D

This meatloaf sounded great..it was quick, easy, & simple to make. However, using the recommended loaf pan makes this meatloaf too thick. I usually cook my meatloaf in a baking dish and just form the "meatloaf shape". This is the 1st time I've used a loaf pan. I cooked the meatloaf the recommended 45 minutes and it looked done...meat wasn't touching sides of pan, etc...but after cutting & digging in, I realized it was not fully cooked. I had to pop this one back in the oven and wait while my side dishes got cold and the thrill of the dish disappeared. If I could redo this one, I'd put it in a baking dish...too thick...thank heavens I didn't have any quests over.
I have been making something similar for years

I have yet to try this recipe, But saw Giada make this, it is almost like my Italian mother in laws recipe. She has been "stuffing" her meatloaf with a breadcrumb, and hardboiled egg mixture for years. It is fabulous and I don't care for meatloaf, But I do love this.
Good but NO veal thanks!

The meatloaf was nice, but a definite NO to veal (ethical reasons)! The polpettone (meatloaf) is ok, but too cheese and personally instead of pork means I would add MORTADELLA! This is the classic ingredient that all the nonnas (granmas) add to their meatloaf to give that extra tasty kick, so if you can find it, just go for it is all worth it!

I really like this meatloaf. I did use boxed stuffing when I made it (a cornbread stuffing) because I was very low on time. I must say the meat is flavorful, the marinara on top with the cheese is nice. A very good meatloaf. I heard nice comments from my family. I was on the verge of giving it 5 stars, but I save that for the WOW recipes. I recommend. Next time, I will make it with her stuffing, perhaps that's the WOW it needed.
Best meatloaf ever!
