Basic Meatloaf

Nothing says good old-fashioned comfort food better than a classic meatloaf. It’s just one of those dishes that never seems to get old. We wanted ours with lots of flavor, so we’ve cooked it with extra amounts of parmesan, garlic, and onion. And don’t forget to glaze it with a delicious mix of ketchup and worchestershire sauce.
