Easy Meatloaf

Beef & Mushroom Meatloaf Usually about 1/3-1/2 of the volume of "meat" in this dish is actually mushroom to give you an idea of how much I add, I never really measure the mushroom part. I don't like mushrooms so I do this in all of my beef recipes to hide them, I can't tell they are there (your picky eaters wont be able to tell either!) They make the dish taste amazing--the same recipe without them just isn't as good!
