    Best I've ever had

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made the recipe tonight and it is fantastic! I did however use italian bread crumbs instead of oats. Only thing I'll... change for next time is buying 90/10 ground beef instead of 80/20 it was a little greasy! My husband says he's ready for whenever I decide to make this again. I also made an extra loaf for my parents and they agree it is simply amazing.Read more

    A recipe that will be handed down through generations!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    My early teen daughter was a semi vegitarian for 2 years, and even then only would eat poultry once in a while. Until My... older daughter told her about "Moms" new meatloaf. Actually "Paulas", well that was the day she began to eat red meat again!! Delicious!! Everyone loves it, I never have good luck with recipes that sound so simple and look so good, they just never work out for me, even when I follow them to the letter. But this one turns out great everytime! I cut down the salt & pepper, and omit the green pepper all together, just a matter of taste. But its a keeper, it makes me proud to hear my kids tell everyone how good their mothers meatloaf is! Many thanks Paula!! We all love you! SandyRead more
