I hate it when people review recipes and they've changed so much its not even the same recipe!! BUT - I made this for a client yesterday and the changes I made were small enough I feel I can review the recipe. Instead of cornflake crumbs I used seasoned breadcrumbs, and I used double the amount of mushrooms. The last thing I did was add black pepper and about 1 tbsp of mustard to the meat. The result was great, and the meatloaf was moist and tender and very flavorful.
