This was shared several years ago and I have made it several times, always has been well received. For those fortunate enough to have some left over, this makes wonderful sandwiches.

I'm doing a lot of cooking right now because my wife has a hand injury. Made this meatloaf pretty much "by the book" except for using panko bread crumbs and skipping the bacon. Teen-aged daughter gave this the highest praise telling her mom to "loose her old recipe" i think that pre-cooking the celery & onions is an essential step, the vegetables become invisible when this is done. Overall, this meatloaf is tender, moist and flavorful.

We liked this a lot. I shortened it by just mixing everything without doing the saute. Didn't have celery so I omitted it and I also skipped the topping. Only thing I added was 1/2 tsp. garlic powder. I molded the meat into a loaf shape and placed it on a broiler pan to allow the fat to drip down. Baked it at 350 for an hour. It was very tender and soft in texture and I liked the taste. My son brought a meatloaf sandwich to school the next day for this friend who adored it. Thank you!
