This meat loaf is delicious. Couldn't get veal in time, so I doubled up on beef, but both the meatloaf and the stuffing is great.

Weather was really bad (rare for my area Didn't want to go out, so modified a bit. Had ground beef & pork -- used them, no veal. Had homemade bread crumbs & Parmesan to grind. Instead of ketchup, I added 14 oz of drained, diced tomatoes, plus 1/8 c. of their juice. Didn't make the stuffing.
Made an emergency gravy. Melted butter. Sauteed chopped onion. Added flour for a minute or two, then added low salt beef broth, a little red wine & cream of mushroom soup (I would have used fresh mushrooms instead if I'd had them. Actually, it was quite good.
Served with roasted garlic mashed potatoes & a salad.
This is no doubt an excellent recipe when made as directed. Modifications of it brought me through a bad day with a great meal!

My family, friends and I LOVE this recipe. I always make it without the stuffing and it comes out amazing. I usually pair it with Giada's potato pancakes or her cheesy baked tortelloni with smoked mozzarella....can you say YUM!

This meatloaf was simply fantastic. The cheese, marinara, stuffing, and tender mixture of meat all worked together very nicely. The only problem I encountered while making this recipe, however, was the cooking time. After about 45 minutes, I was suspicious about the doneness of the meat, so I let it go for another 10 minutes, thinking it would be okay. After slicing it, though, the meat was far too pink to be considered "done". So I put it in the microwave for 5 minutes or so. That worked fine, and it was more thoroughly cooked after that.
Despite this, however, it was a really delicious meatloaf recipe and made wonderful use of our leftover stuffing! Definitely a keeper.

I finally got around to making this recipe today and like most of Giada's recipes I was not disappointed at all. I didn't stuff it and instead of mixing in pork and veal I just used beef (my husband doesn't eat pork and veal is just cruel. I also used dry parsley as a substitute because I forgot to get the fresh kind. I'm not sure if the parsley being dry had anything to do with it but I could really taste it and that was kind of annoying but not bad enough to ruin the loaf. All I can really say is that this meatloaf recipe is delicious and my husband absolutely loved it. Thanks again Giada!!

We made this just after Thanksgiving right on schedule, and we loved it. You can get creative and play with this recipe and it will still be great. Our whole family loved it. Next time we will use a different stuffing, though.

What happens if you combine your mom's meatloaf with Thanksgiving turkey dinner with lasagna? You have Giada's stuffed meatloaf! I love the combination of flavors- and it's awesome served with mashed potatoes. An excellent dish for a cold winter night.

My husband and I made this, with homemade mashed potatoes, for a dinner with friends. Everyone asked for seconds and the recipe!
