Folks, this recipe has been a generational favorite in Matt Dobbe's family (my daughter's boyfriend). Recently I was visiting with my daughter to care for her and the girls after she had ankle surgery and Matt made these as a welcome meal. They made a triple batch and they disappeared very quickly. The recipe below makes six good size one serving meatloaves or large meatballs or lots of cocktails size meatballs shown here.
