This looked really good on the recipe, but when I made it it was very very liquidy. Now, this could have been the quality of beef, as it was the very first time I had ever used ground beef from Wal-mart, because they only just started selling beef at Walmart here in Canada. So I tried it using the Wal-mart beef. That was probably the downfall. But it was very very watery and I followed the recipe to the letter. So, if anyone else followed the recipe and bought beef from somewhere else and it turned out good, let me know...I'd be glad to try it again....

I made this on 10/29/08 for "Stacky5 Cook-A-Thon"and as part of mine and SO's dinner.This is what meatloaf is supposed to be,pure "Comfort Food". Followed the recipe as written, except for using dehydrated red and green peppers instead of fresh.I've eaten several meatloaves in my time and this has to be in the "Top 5" (Mom's of course is #1 :) ) .Perfect taste and texture, and baking time right on the money.If I could give this recipe more than 5 stars,believe me I would. Everytime I make this I'm going to think of you Stacy."Keep Smiling :)"
