Meat loaf is great and easy

Aunt Peggy's meal loaf is awful. too much tomato paste. We couldn't eat it so mixed it with rice and cheese the next day and then it was edible.

I've made this receipe several times and love it. Just have one question though. Is there any way to get a nutrional count on it?

I made this recipe for the first time last night and absolutely love the flavor. The only problem I had was, after removing it from the pan and letting it rest, it fell apart when I tried to slice it. When eating it right away it isn't that big of a deal. However, I love cold meatloaf sandwiches for lunch. Even cold it fell apart. Is there anything I can do to help bind it together a bit more? An extra egg perhaps?

I had been making my mom's meatloaf for decades until I found this. It is moist, flavorable, and delicious. I'm making it again tonight.

This meatloaf stuck together like glue. It needed more fillers. I used really lean meat to make it more healthy but it just had no taste. Normally, I love Paula's recipes but not this one.

Normally, I love Paula's recipes but Aunt Peggy's was the worst meatloaf I ever made. My favorite and which I normally make is the old fashioned meatloaf.

Just copied down your Choc. sour cream lb. cake. Thank you! Was dismayed at media reaction when your diabetes was made known; any mama knows the recipes that start with "one lb. butter" are not for everyday, but are for special occasions and are served, hopefully, in less-than-large helpings. Love your web site, your recipes, and your lovely Southern ways and manners. Your "Company's Comin' " recipes are usually do-able, taste great and look pretty. Thanks from all of us who needed that bit of inspiration. OldPolly

This was terrible. I've been cooking Paula's receipes for years, but this one is no good. No taste and the oats were tough. You can do better Paula.

Delicious and moist. I substituted pan sausage for half of the ground beef, at my husband's request. Really good!

My family loves meatloaf, but I have always had to make 2 separate meatloaves because my son has autism and could not have the breadcrumbs that I would normally put in it. When I saw you using the oats I was so happy I could finally make one meatloaf for the whole family to enjoy and they all love it!

This is the best meatloaf I have ever had! I've made it for all our family when they come from out of town and it is a smash hit! Thank you Paula for making me LOVE cooking!

After following this recipe carefully, I found the flavor very good but it was a disaster getting it out of the pan. It all crumbled into a thousand pieces. Maybe more oatmeal is needed.

Absolutley love this meatloaf!!! I'm not a huge meatloaf fan, but I am now!!! Its rich with flavor and is so juicy that it falls apart in the pan. Even my picky husband who has always made meatloaf from a season packet said he will never buy seasoning packets again.

Best Meatloaf I have ever had!!! Will use Aunt Peggy's recipe for the rest of my life! Thank you Paula!

Hate to say it, but I did not like this meatloaf at all! This is probably the only PD recipe I have tried that I didn't like. It was way too tomato-y, and way too salty. To make matters worse, it crumbled into a heap when I tried to slice it. I followed the recipe to the letter. Will not be making this again.

deeee-lish! easy and my hubby loved. ... i substituted ground turkey for ground beef, added a lil fresh garlic and used the un-salted tomato paste. other than that, would not change a thing! it was very moist and flavorful! loved the oatmeal and peppers on the top.
