     OMG this was incredible. I did substitute low fat plain yogurt for the greek yogurt but I will definitely make this again. Husband loved it as well. Served with mashed potatoes made with chicken broth and yogurt, creamy and tasty and healthy. - 8/20/09

     This is good. Although brown rice has a strong flavor, it adds fullness and volume to the loaf without overpowering the flavor of the meat. We really liked it.

    I spread it out in a 8x10 pan and baked at 400. It was done in under 25 minutes. I also put tomato soup on top--good over potatoes. - 3/6/10

     This had a very good taste to it. The brown rice sure fills you up. I added a tbsp of Heinz low carb reduced sugar ketchup on top for some extra flavor! - 11/4/09

     Everyone in my family loved this! I can't eat peppers so I added fresh chopped spinach and mushrooms. Super yummy! - 12/12/12

     To the person who questioned the sodium content. You are correct. If you eliminate the tsp of salt it is accurate. Still yummy! - 4/21/12

     I loved the recipe, however, I question the sodium info. I Googled the amount of sodium in 1 tsp of salt and came up with 2300 mg. Six servings results in 383 mg/serving (assuming no sodium added by anything else.) If I am wrong please tell me. I just want to be accurate when I track it. - 9/6/11

     NEW FAV!!! I made a huge mistake when I forgot to add the yogurt, eggs, and spices BUT it was still delicious, moist, and stayed together. (I added some chopped garlic as some others suggested) I can't wait to try it again with all of the ingriedients! - 1/26/11

     Pretty good even though I am not a brown rice lover. I need to learn to eat more brown rice than white. - 4/19/18
  • NEMODUCK
     This was a good recipe, just kind of bland for my taste. I used turkey instead of hamburger, so maybe that was the problem. That said, I will be making this again, I'll try putting a couple pieces of bacon on top, and maybe a few more spices. It is very filling. - 1/10/18

     Made exactly as prescribed but added 1 teaspoonful granulated garlic. I also used large muffin pans to make individual servings. Family loved it. - 8/7/17

     This was very good and filling! My husband and teenage son both loved it too, especially the next day as a meatloaf sandwich on whole wheat bread. - 11/20/13

     We used vanilla greek yogurt with choc chunks by accident (gramps). Used orange bell pepper instead of celery along with the green pepper too... we also added sausage with the beef... next time using turkey instead of beef.

    Turned out great!!! - 4/5/13

     I prepared 2 of these for a church pitch-in today, one w/turkey and one w/hamburger. They were very well received. I did add a ketchup/brown sugar/tomato paste sauce to the top, and I also added some cheddar cheese to the top of the hamburger one. I would make it again but maybe modify it a bit. - 2/10/13
