Recipe Review and Works for me Wednesday


So I am doing a combo today...its a little late for Works for me Wednesday, but still...its Wednesday!



Ok... so for my recipe review today I decided to try a new meatloaf recipe I found...and of course I never follow the book so here is the actual recipe.

But alas....here are the changes I made...


I added celery, about 2 stalks chopped


Did a bit of onion and onion soup mix


omitted salt due to the soup


I didn't do the sauce on the bottom, that just doesn't make sense to me, wouldn't it get all baked and stuck? I made a glaze instead and added Worcestershire sauce


I also only did 1/2 cup milk


I used bread crumbs instead of saltines



Wow, even the same recipe? LOL



Well here is where the WFMW comes in... instead of using a loaf pan, I used muffin pans. It cuts the time down quiet a bit and it isn't any more difficult. The glaze does get baked on the top (anyone with ideas on how to prevent that??) but other than that, I like to do it this way sometimes.





As far as the actual taste of the dinner goes, I thought it was good. DH says it taste like my other recipe (which uses brown gravy instead of onion soup, and a few other changes....geez MEN!) lol Anyway, I am sure it was because my glaze was the same. I guess I can do meatloaf either way now depending on what I have. DS (11 months) ate this up! He loved himself some meatloaf and corn!
Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes (in muffin pans)
Will we make this again??....darn tootin :)

WFMW

As I said in my recipe review, I love trying new recipes. But I found that printing them left them shoved in my cabinte and I could NEVER find what I was looking for. So, I started a binder. This way I have all of my recipes in one place. I love this method because with the page protectors, the pages don't get ruined (I'm a messy cook!). I can also add notes, make changes, or write down comments for next time. This is a great way to stay organized in the kitchen!
