    I used ground turkey instead of beef & left out the ketchup. I calculated this w/ extra lean beef & no ketchup & it came out to 237 cal. (which is still great), but w/ 1 lb. 99% & one lb. 93% turkey & no ketchup it was 137 cal. per serving. (for anyone who cares). Also less fat & more protein. :) - 10/27/07

    This was really good. I halved the recipe and added about 1 TBSP of BBQ sauce. I topped with a little added ketchup. I omitted the onion, but used a lot of onion powder. Will definately make again. Thanks! - 10/3/09

    easy and delicious--my changes: substituted 1 pound ground turkey for ground beef
    omitted ketchup, bread, one egg, and onion--added 1 can evaporated milk, used extra oatmeal and panko (instead of bread)--added 2 packets of onion soup mix, garlic powder, onion powder, celery salt, and cooked celery

    The whole family loved it. Grew up on meatloaf and now really like this version. It was a much lighter version then the old fashion country one. I used low carb ketchup to save some cal and carbs. Next time I will go with the leanest version of meat to save on the grease. - 2/1/09
