We love this recipe! It delivers moist and tangy meatloaf that will make you and your guests want more! We used 1/2 and 1/2 and I used onion powder. I added 3 T. of brown sugar to the top. I used 90% lean ground beef. I used my meatloaf pan so that the meat doesn’t sit in all of the oil and juices. The meatloaf pan had about 1/4″ of fat and juices in the bottom. I highly recommend that pan! Enjoy!

Other tips:
- The addition of 1 or 2 teaspoons of Kitchen Bouquet® makes this recipe very good.
