I made this meatloaf for my very picky family. Everyone absolutely loved it. I did not have to add a thing. My son's said it was like eating a burger without the bread, Fabulous!! We will defiantly be having this again. Thank you for sharing.

Really liked this - I grew up on my mom's meatloaf and thought it was the ONLY one - hmmmm - I think I have changed my mind now. Actually I fixed it when a brother and sister were here to visit - they also loved it. I did not put the cereal in - didn't have any - I used bread crumbs.

This is the best meatloaf! Perfect texture and tons of flavor. I follow the recipe exactly. It turns out the same every time, so it makes a perfect meal for company. We always get compliments.

For whatever reason, my bacon didn't produce the usual amount of drippings, so once the bacon was cooked halfway, I added my onion and mushrooms to the pan. Otherwise, I followed the recipe almost exactly (used lean instead of extra lean) and it turned out great. Good on buns the next day with extra swiss and sliced tomatoes too.

Not what I was expecting. No one in my family liked it. I followed exactly but it wasn't for us.

This was great. I made changes to suit my low-carb lifestyle. I left out the evaporated milk and replaced cornflake crumbs with low-carb pita bread crumbs. I did not use bacon simply because we didn't have any, and I topped the meatloaf with mushrooms instead of mixing them in. I know that makes it not quite the same recipe, but you get the idea. My three year old and husband enjoyed it very much.

AMAZING....I will never make traditional meatloaf again. I used 2 eggs instead of 1, and it was perfect I also used the Hormel Real Bacon Pieces that come in a bottle, so much easier

Best meatloaf ever!! Instead of an onion, I used onion soup mix, and turkey bacon. I also put a layer of cheese in the middle. My husband and I loved it!!

This turned out excellent. I used 1 pound of ground beef and 1/2 pound of ground pork because my grocer had it already pre-weighed for meatloaf. I used some extra cheese and portabello mushrooms instead of white and extra of those as well. I used the food processor to combine the onion, bacon, and mushrooms raw and then fried the contents in a frying pan before adding to the meat mixture. I also used the food processor on the swiss cheese, which gave nice chunks instead of shredded cheese that can get lost in a dish like this. I used slices of swiss on the top as well as a few pieces of whole bacon on top of that. I broiled the last few minutes of cooking time to crisp the bacon and it turned out perfect. Extra ingredients equaled extra flavor and the presentation couldn't be beat. Huge hit! Will make again :)
