amazingly good meatloaf-connie's
There are a million ways to make meatloaf. Our family settled on this recipe many moons ago and it's always perfect. I'm not sure where the recipe came from but I remember mom making it when I was ten. It makes great sandwiches the next day...if there's any left:) Enjoy! 2/3/2013
