If picky eaters in your family don’t like chunks of onion or green pepper in meat loaf, put those ingredients in the blender and blend before adding to the ground beef. Your meat loaf will be tasty and slice well. —Carlette L., Millersburg, Pennsylvania
"My husband, Wayne, asks for this meat loaf all the time," reports Edna Lauderdale of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. "We like it spicy, so we use hot sausage rather than mild. Slices are terrific drizzled with ketchup, served with mashed potatoes and gravy, or in meat loaf sandwiches the next day."
A jambalaya of flavors greets guests who sample my zippy meat loaf. I received the recipe years ago from a friend who lived in Jamaica.—Anna Free, Cleveland, Ohio
