Everyone's meals sound so yummy!

I painted 4 rooms on my days off and didn't cook at all.

First day I threw together a favorite chicken & dumpling soup that I dipped out of the crock pot all day long... made from all store-bought packaged foods: A picked rotisserie deli-hen, canned chicken and dumplings, canned chicken stock and frozen veggies.

Second day I just had several PB&J's all day long- made them as I was covered in paint!

That's another thing we do not have in Wales is meat loaf.

Would you please post a recipe for it. Could you tell me how you serve it, hot or cold and what accompanyments would you serve.

I'm facinated by the sound of it.

My version of meatloaf recipe is:

1 + lbs of hamburger meat (GROUNDBEEF)
1 egg
1/4 c. oatmeal
1/4 c. breadcrumbs
1/8 c. milk
2 tbsp. prepared mustard
2 tbsp. ketchup
splash each of soy sauce & worstershire
1/8 cup (each) of chopped onion & bellpepper
2 tsp. dried parsley
salt & pepper to taste
generous dash of Lawry's seasoned salt

Mix all ing. in a deep bowl until well blended. Place into a bread pan & bake 1 hour at 350 degrees.

Then 15 min.'s before pulling out of oven mix together several tbsp. of ketchup, a generous squirt of mustard, and 2 tabsp. of brown sugar mix well and coat top of meatloaf with it, continue to cook for last 15 min's. The glaze will be nice and bubbly. Remove from bread pan to serving platter, let cool a few min's and slice & serve HOT!!!


Now a little education on meatloaf for you Keziah!!!

It is wondeful served hot, slice the loaf into about 3/4 inch to 1 inch slices to serve. I like mine best with buttered mashed potatoes, and green beans- but rice or any vegetable would be fine!

NOW the really wonderful thing about meatloaf is cold slices make FABULOUS sandwiched!!!:) I use 2 pieces of bread, a little mayonaise and ketchup spread on each slice of bread lay a thin slice of meatloaf between the two pieces of bread add a little salt & pepper to taste and VIOLA a delicious tasting sandwich!!!

MEATLOAF IS WONDERFUL AND EASY TO MAKE AND DOES NOT COST A FORTUNE TO MAKE!!! I LOVE MEATLOAF----YUMMY:p
