I've shared this recipe with many friends. The unique, hearty meat loaf is full of surprises - tangy wild rice and pockets of cheddar cheese make it extra special. Even so, it's not that tricky to prepare...try it and see! -Genie Lang, Jamestown, North Dakota

Next time half the rice, cheese, flour and sage. Great recipe!

We have this meat loaf for a family meal on a cold night. We use twice the meat, half the wild rice, and half the flour for two loaves. The 2nd loaf is refrigerated; then sliced and "fried" for the next day. We think it tastes even better as 'fried leftovers' the next day.
