  1. This tasted so good! Instead of oats I used bread crumbs, which tasted pretty good. Next time I think I need to drain the frozen spinach a little more, because it was still a little runny after the 45 min of baking. Thanks for the recipe, it's great!
     
  2. Fantastic recipe. My husband loved it! Great flavor and the carrots & spinach add great color. Thank you!
     
  3. I'm looking forward to trying this. It sounds delicious!Karin.

  5. I was very excited to try this recipe because it looked like on of those recipes that was too helathy to actually taste good, but the reviews seemed to say otherwise. My 2 toddlers and I LOVED this!! It really was delicious, and I will be making it again in the future. We ate almost half the loaf and put the rest in the freezer, so I hope it is just as good reheated. The only problem I had with the recipe is mine took nearly an hour and a half at 400 degrees before it was finally cooked through. I chopped the carrots (leaving the peels on) with my KitchenAid chopper and used my kitchen sheers to cut up the spinach into smaller pieces. Came out perfect and not dry at all despite the lengthy cooking time. I had mine with A1, and the kids had their's with Ketchup. I Served this with homemade mashed potatoes. Thanks for a great recipe!

Tweaks

  1. This meatloaf is very good-- especially since I usually don't like meatloaf at all! The extra veggies really help! Due to allergies, I subbed tapioca flour for the oats and wheat germ and soy milk for cow milk. The first time I accidentially added the steak sauce to the mix. It helped keep the meatloaf moist, so I've continued doing that. Also, we tried freezing the raw mix and baking it later. It came out fine.
     
  2. A very tasty meatloaf. A few ingredients were improvised. I thought Id taken minced beef out of the freezer, but it proved to pork/veal mince (which is great for meatballs or meatloaf) so I used that! I subbed breadcrumbs for the oats and, in addition to the listed ingredients, I added about 2 cups of mushrooms (I had heaps of mushrooms on hand!) and a generous sprinkling of several herbs: parsley, marjoram, thyme and sage. I used 1 large brown onion & 4 cloves of garlic: in all about I cup after mincing. And as I didnt have any steak sauce, I followed the instructions for when to add this and used oyster sauce. The result was a very moist and flavoursome loaf, which we ate with Sherrie-pies delicious Garlic Mushrooms Recipe #148837. I especially loved the spinach in this meatloaf. Everyone enjoyed this meatloaf, especially my mother who is very particular about which ones she likes! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
