Hey! Wait!!! Where is the Enchilada sauce? Obviously, you've never had Enchilada meatloaf. This is just salsa and cornbread meatloaf.

I'm giving this yummy recipe 5 stars for ease of preparation and kids and adults alike enjoyed it. I followed the recipe exactly as written using a green tomatillo salsa and 1/2 mild/1/2 sharp cheese blend on tthe cornbread topping. I used 85% lean ground beef and when I removed the dish from the oven, I did tip the pie plate to carefully ovr a pan to drain off as much fat as I could. This recipe is going into our meal rotation at the insistence of our kids; not that we adults minded in the least. Thank you Taste Tester for sharing this fabulous week-night dinner dish that only needs a salad to make it complete.

This was quick and easy to make. Everyone enjoyed the new tasty spin on meatloaf. Even my picky eater; 6 yo. Emily loved it. Thanks for a great dinner.
