Meatloaf has always been a favorite recipe at home, one that brings me many childhood memories. My mom used to make it often in many different ways, and this recipe is the one my father loved most. Making meatloaf is not only very simple, it is also very versatile, and allows for a wide range of flavors, which you can eat hot or cold, and accompany with a salad to make a complete meal.
