Meatloaf Thursday

Nick and I had a conversation between the pulsation of the food processor and sizzle of onions in the sauté pan. We talked about our past. I love the conversations where we discuss our childhoods.  We both recalled commercials and TV shows where kids would complain when their mothers would tell them meatloaf was for dinner. Meatloaf = gross, to kids... Neither one of us can remember a time where we didn't love meatloaf. Maybe this is one of the many things that bonds us together :-)

Nick and I decided to copy off of Nathan and Alana by making the Cook's County Glazed Meatloaf recipe. Their review of the recipe is what had me wanting to prepare it. I am not a big fan of ketchup and, many recipes call for ketchup to be poured on top. The recipe we made called for us to make our own sauce that contained ketchup but, also had hot sauce in it. 

I love meatloaf. This recipe did it justice. Nick was skeptical because the recipe did not call for us placing the uncooked meat into a loaf pan but, in the end Cook's Country wins again!

Dinner! The red sauce is not ketchup!
