This is the only meatloaf I have ever liked. I also add some garlic powder (1 tsp) and dried basil (2 tsp) for an extra kick.

First of all, leave out the salt...you DON'T need it.

Second of all, NEVER cook meatloaf made with beef in a loaf pan because it soaks in a bath of its own fat. Form it into a loaf shape and cook on top of racks on a cookie sheet so the fat drips away. You don't lose any flavor.

I prefer beef but if you want to lighten this recipe up on the fat content even more, try using turkey meat. You can use the loaf pan with turkey.

I use a glaze of ketchup, brown sugar, worcestershire sauce, and a little liquid smoke. Put some on before putting in the oven, then put more on about half way through cooking, reserve some to put on the table as a sauce. Its good stuff!

Meatloaf isn't rocket science, you can use any number of spices to make it good. If you're not concerned about the fat or salt, try half cooking some bacon, then lay the strips over the top of the meatloaf before cooking. Or perhaps crumbling up some cooked bacon and mixing it in with the meat...oh yeah, hog heaven! Or try putting some curry mix in the meat, and use a curry sauce packet to make a gravy.

Never let a recipe limit you, they're just guidelines!

Can't stand onions, I always leave them out of any recipe, this one was OK without onions, I'd do it again.
