Traditional meatloaf: yum

or yuck?

+ Our favourite! My

daughter wanted me to

make it tonight actually.

Karina Davie

+ Definitely yum. My

whole family loved it.

And cold leftover slices

in a sandwich. Mmm!

Linda Dudarko

+ Mum use to make this for

us. She had the exact recipe

card. Blast from the past! Don’t

think my lot’d eat it. I loved

that meatloaf. Emma Sexton

+ A favourite meal here. It’s

amazing what I could hide in

a meatloaf to get a load of

vegetables into the family.

Cheryl Stoddart

+ Best meatloaf ever!

Jenny Simpson

+ Yum – well, at least mine is.
