I made just the meatloaf part of this recipe and added rice to it to make stuffed peppers. Oh yeah, and I added 1 small onion to the meat. Also I added the tomato sauce with some garlic and basil added over the top of each pepper before baking. We loved it!

Oh YUM! Not so plain either. DH is away but hopefully he'll be back tomorrow to have some. It was easy to make and it's a whole meal. I followed all directions as listed but used red potatoes siince it's what I had and I used 16 oz. sauce of a garlic variety. I would add more onions next time as Tina suggested since they got so nice and sweet. Thanks for another winner!

As smiple as it sounds its by far one of the best meatloafs I have ate. I made a pan of cornbread to go with it its great. However my family like onions we did not think that one onion was enough so we added extra. Also I added one extra can of tomato sauce . I use two 8 oz. cans of hunts roasted garlic tomatoe sauce because my family also likes garlic it taste great.
