    I made this last night for my family and it was ...AMAZING !!!!
    we also added 2 Garlic Cloves, 2 Table spoons of chopped Jalapeno, AND fire roasted tomatoes ( we like spicy food we also replaced the Ketchup for Chipotle BBQ ... I made half with Ketchup and the other half with BBQ but the BBQ was so much better ..... I wrapped it with bacon strips ! It was GREAT !!!

    I made this meatloaf the other night and it was a big hit! I did add a couple things....a couple cloves of garlic, some chopped fresh parsley, and about a 1/2 c of chopped bacon that was left over from the previous nights dinner of BLT's. All of these only added to the end result, especially the bacon (really added a nice depth of flavor - who doesn't love bacon!! Next time I will make them in muffin tins to make for an easy addition to school and work lunches!
