Meatloaf is definetly on my list as comfort food. Everytime I make it and smell it cooking in the oven it just reminds me of my childhood. This recipe comes from a Mennonite cookbook that I have had in my possesion for 13 years. It is full of treasures, maybe that is why it is called “Kitchen Treasures”. The only thing I did different this time was top it with bacon before I added the sauce.
