Nathalie Dupree's Meat Loaf
This has been my favorite meat loaf recipe for years. It's from Nathalie Dupree's cookbook "New Southern Cooking" which I got from my mom many years ago. It is a great reading cookbook, but this is my favorite recipe out of the whole book. She says: "Here's my mother's time-honored meat loaf recipe." Serve it hot with mashed potatoes and English peas, or cold for sandwiches." The sauce is a bit different than the typical plain tomato or catsup on top, but I love it! I will add we love it in Recipe #258703 for leftover meatloaf chili
