South Beach Meatloaf

Phase II recipe As one review indicated, this is a bit on the bland side. For those of you not watching your salt intake, the flavor is improved by using tomato paste with the salt included. This is not a recipe to impress dinner guests, but an easy healthy weekday recipe. Its a good way to eat zucchini without realizing you are eating it.
