Recipes and tips for making a terrific meatloaf
Meatloaf has long been a standard main dish in America, and according to John Mariani, was first seen in print as early as 1899. For many, meat loaf is an ultimate comfort food, bringing back pleasant childhood memories of family meals. There are many ways to cut the calories and enhance the flavor of ordinary meatloaf, from tasty additions to spicy toppings.
Ground round is the best choice if you're using beef for your meatloaf, since excess fat in fattier ground meats is absorbed by breadcrumbs. Use soft bread crumbs in place of dry for a moister meatloaf, or substitute grated potato or carrots for a portion of the meat, which will also eliminate some of the calories. Baking the meatloaf on a rack will keep it out of the fatty drippings. Sharon Tyler Herbst, author of "The Food Lover's Tiptionary," recommends making your own pan by piercing holes in an inexpensive loaf pan then setting it on a rack in a baking pan.
Another great thing about meatloaf is you can bake it in the oven, microwave, electric roaster, or crock pot.
Truly, the only limit is your imagination! If Mom's basic meatloaf has lost its appeal, try one of this week's recipes

Enjoy!
Tips and flavor-enhancing ideas:
For more flavor and a juicier meatloaf, add about 1/4 cup of tomato juice, wine, or broth for each pound of meat.
Bake in muffin tins or mini-loaf pans for individual servings.
Use leftovers sliced in sandwiches or crumbled in sauces or chili.
Replace some of the liquid in the recipe with red wine or dark beer.
Add a cup of grated or shredded cheese to the meatloaf and top with more cheese about 10 minutes before it's done.
Replace liquids with red wine or dark beer.
Make the finished meatloaf extra fancy by frosting with mashed potatoes and topping with cheese; return to the oven and cook until the cheese is melted.

Well, it's easy, just do what you normally do, and look in the mirror and you will see what meatloaf is all about.
And as far as recite pee, that's something only you could understand, much less know how to do. Probably done in the bathroom.

I use about a pound of burger, catsup, 1onion chopped,fresh tomatoes,or canned[fresh works better though] and an egg, mix this all together with saltine crackers, crumbled of course, bake on375 for about 45 minutes and ta-da nMeatloaf! Of course you'll probably have to play around with it to get your measurements correct, but use those basic ingredients so Have fun baking I know I do!

USE TOMATO PASTE FOR JUICY MEATLOAF;USE CORNFLAKES AND FLOUR TO ABSORB SOME OF THE JUICE FROM THE GROUNDBEEF OR USE GROUND TURKEY LESS FAT. WHEN SEASONING THE MEAT USE A LITTLE SALT,PEPPER, FLOUR,1-2 RAW EGGS TO STICK THINGS TOGETHER AND THE CORNFLAKES TO HELP BIND THINGS A LITTLE.COLD LEFTOVER MEATLOAF IS DELICIOUS

Take hamburger out of freezer - thaw it out and let it loaf for 45 minutes on the bar/table. Then you should invite Mother-In-Law over and feed it to her!@

Both are good for you, each fruit/vegetable has different vitamins. Thus as more variety, as better. Vegetables have generally less sugar than fruits.
