Mom's Meatloaf

Picture
I don’t about you, but I do not have the time or energy to cook everything from scratch. Then it came to me – I don’t have to!

In brief – I need to add more fiber – more fruit – more veggies into our diet without driving me – she who does all the shopping, cooking and prep- insane. Then it hit me – why don’t I add more of the good stuff into what we are already eating & enjoying.

Here is my first concoction! A healthier version of my mother’s favorite Meatloaf Recipe.
