Like bameiboo said, it doesn't taste like meatloaf. The flavor was too herbaceous for our family. I would have preferred if it tasted like meatloaf.

I have been making this for 17 years now and everyone that eats them loves them! They are very tender, have great flavor and are so simple to make. I serve them over rice instead of on a bun.

I didn't intend on serving these on buns to begin with. They were so juicy I imagine it would have made for a soggy bun anyhow! They were cooked perfectly and tasted good, not really like my meatloaf though! I did add some wochestershire sauce for a more savory flavor.
