This is such a great basic recipe that can be customized to a families particular tastes. The only 2 things that were negative (and they weren't major). One was that the meatloaf was too moist and fell apart. (Maybe more cracker crumbs or less ketchup or leaner meat?) There wasn't nearly enough potatoes for everyone considering there was 2-1/2 pounds of meat. I would definetely double or maybe even triple the amount of potatoes. Otherwise I really liked it. Especially when I used seasoned salt and garlic on the potatoes after retrieving them. Thanks Melanie for sharing.
