Author Notes

Growing up, meatloaf had a weekly appearance at our family dinner table. My mom's version was studded with yellow onion, garlic, an egg, breadcrumbs, salt/pepper, and painted with a simple ketchup glaze. At a family dinner last night, I updated a classic by jazzing up the meatloaf with a dose of horseradish, fresh herbs, Dijon mustard, and a savory/sweet ketchup glaze. It was a hit. —testkitchenette

I'm so happy to see this recipe again. We haven't had meatloaf in quite a while, so this is on the menu, as soon as I can get over to the butcher!! I always love your recipes, testkitchenette, so I'm particularly looking forward to making this. ;o)

As the original SlackerMom, I like the first step: put 9 of the 11 ingredients in the food processor and let it do the work! Mr. T. is growing weary of meatloaf, I sense, so I'll probably give him a break and not make this until next week . . . . .;o) But I AM looking forward to it.

The next meatloaf I make is going to be this one. Love it -- especially the quinoa, as we have a family member who can't eat wheat. Stay tuned. ;o)
