My favorite all time food is meatloaf. It always has been. On my visits home from college, it was always on my list of wants and when there is a question mark as to what we are going to fill in for dinner, my first suggestion is always...meatloaf.
On the farm, we have added a new twist on things. Beef flavored tvp (textured vegetable protein) mixed with the meat mixture which helps stretch our food out. This meatloaf also has less fat and more protein without sacrificing any taste-all because of the tvp!
Feeling like making this right now, just thinking about it!
