Sweet and Sour Meatloaf
By KerryAnnI often choose meatloaf for a quick and easy dinner when I am busy at home but I have the time to let it cook. I am in love with Beyond Organic’s ground beef, it is far more flavorful with a better texture and consistency than even the meat I get from my local farmer or health food store.
When I make this meatloaf, I pop some scrubbed potatoes in a 9×13 pan and put them in the oven at the same time. Then all I have to do is to fix some broccoli, asparagus or a salad, depending on what is in season.
