4 cups Potatoes O'Brien (recommended: Ore-Ida)
1 pound lean ground beef
1 1/4 pounds ground pork
1 (5.29-ounce) box Garlic Herb Shake and Bake (recommended: Kraft)
1 (1.1-ounce) envelope Beefy Onion Soup Mix (recommended: Lipton)
1 (4.5-ounce) jar Sliced Mushrooms, drained (recommended: Green Giant)

Very Disappointing
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I had tried the 'Pot Roast' recipe for a crockpot and just loved it. So I thought I'd try this one. I would have been better... off making my own recipe for meatloaf. This had a terrible flavor and texture. I was very disappointed. And now I'm hesitant to try any more of her crockpot recipes. This was too expensive and time consuming to even try! Don't waste your time or money!Read more

Do Not Make This Meatloaf
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I usually don't enjoy semi-homemade recipes because the ingredients just don't appeal to me. I must have been weak-minded... the day I watched this episode and said "hmmm. That looks good." After spending $5000 on the boxed up, canned up, and add-water-and-stir ingredients, I nearly spewed on myself watching this concoction develop into a loaf shaped creation. Hours later, as the loaf finished cooking in the crock pot, the most vile smell permeated throughout the house. Sliced it up, and poured a weird, gray, lumpy, potato-ish sauce on top. Mmmmmm, are you salivating yet? The flavor was not meaty or oniony. She said it was going to melt in my mouth. No, the loaf did not melt in my mouth. It tasted like salt, like canned food, like indescribable supernatural things. I spoke of it the next day at work. A meatloaf lover coworker guy said, "please allow me to try the meatloaf. It sounds very interesting." He tried it the next day, and I'm trying to find a kind way of saying that the meatloaf exited his mouth, half chewed, into the nearest waste basket. I agree--stick to your old meatloaf recipe. You know the one: with the ketchup/tomato sauce/BBQ sauce/whathaveyou poured all over, and then baked in the oven. THAT is meatloaf. PS: the baked potato cheesy-ish soup she made during this episode wasn't good either (and I even used real bacon).Read more

Great Meatloaf
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I'm confused as to why this recipe got sooo many bad reviews. Maybe you need a new crockpot or something, or maybe the pork... fat made the meatloaf "sludgy". I omitted the pork, and used 1 lb. of 93% lean ground turkey, then followed the recipe to a "T", and it turned out excellent! I had absolutely NO leftovers. Also, try the sauteed zucchini! Very Good!!! Read more
