My Spicy Old Fashioned Meatloaf
Very Good 4.3/5

I like things a little on the spicy side so this is my meatloaf. It has tons of onion and a load of flavor! You can cook it topped with additional ketchup or back it like it is. The only reason I made this is so I could figure out the calorie count but thought I might save others the trouble. Enjoy!

A yummy family favourite from the Oprah show. I always add thyme and extra seasoning. Without that I find this bland. Change the veg, change the top, whatever you like. This recipe is very forgiving, I have never made it the same twice.
Have fun.
