My Mom was famous for her meatloaf. Everyone loved it and raved about it. She died of breast cancer in 2000. After she passed I located her personal cookbook filled with hand written recipes she kept, but I couldn't find any written recipe recipe for her meatloaf. My Mom was Swedish and grew up in MN with many Scandinavian recipes. She was also a master baker and a wizard with creams, sauces and gravies. I am still searching for the perfect replica of her meatloaf. So far this is what I have matched of her meatloafs flavor. If these ingredients are familiar to you feel free to share.
