Notes: Meatloaf was one of Dad's favorites. He liked his meatloaf with stewed turnips. I hated stewed turnips and still do. I always serve mine with mashed potatoes. This is Mom's original recipe that Linda found in her files. Over the years I've spiced it up a bit. I add in a teaspoon of fresh chopped sage, a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, ½ tsp ground mustard, and one clove finely chopped garlic. I sometimes make a Mexican version replacing the milk with hot salsa. Omit the potato and add in ½ cup Monterey Jack cheese and a 4 oz can of green chilies. Season with ½ tsp cumin and substitute ketchup with salsa.
