    I really liked it... but goofed it up in the making, misread the directions and added 15 oz can of tomato sauce, so to counteract it I added 1 cup of minute rice... I also sneaked in some veggie and fiber with Mushroom, garlic, & zucchini. - 1/7/11

    I made this for dinner and it was yummy.The list of ingredients failed to mention the tomato sauce, so be sure to put that in.It was really juicy so I just smoothed it down after I put it into the loaf pan.The only thing I did differently was to make it with extra lean ground beef. A winner! - 1/18/10
