Another winner! This was my first time making a meatloaf with hard-boiled eggs inside, and it was a hit. I started using a 9x5 loaf pan, but that was too big, and I switched to an 8x4 loaf pan. The baking time was a tad too long for my meatloaf, and next time I'll reduce the time by 15 minutes. A really nice meatloaf, that I'll be making again. Thanks!

Easy to make and a darn good meatloaf recipe without breadcrumbs. I made it the first time without the hard boiled eggs, but my fiance told me to put them in the next time so I'll try it next. The only warning I have is to keep a close eye on it, because it gets real dense real quick.
