I was bored with my regular meatloaf and was trying to find something different and found this recipe. At first i almost didnt make it as it sounded too "plain"...i used a whole Vidalia onion chopped instead of the 1/4 cup the recipe calls for (I love onions!), and it was delicious and the oatmeal really helped hold it together. The next day's lunch was cold meatloaf sandwiches with Ketchup! yummy! Thanks so much for reminding us how easy and simple things are sometimes the best!

I love to cook, bake and eat! The Joy of Cooking (1975 ed.) is my bible. But I get recipes daily on the internet and watch Food TV regularly. In my next life I'm going to be a pastry chef.
