Submitted by Kaysma

"This recipe, in response to a request, is from a 1916 Campbell's Cookbook. It is one of our favorites - I usually double the sour cream and add a can of button mushrooms to the sauce, but i posted the recipe as it is printed in the cookbook. Enjoy!"

This is our family's favorite meatloaf. I always have to make extra sauce because they like it served with mashed potatoes and used the sauce on them as well. My daughter has already claimed the Campbell's cookbook this is in as hers for future reference.
