I love how this meatloaf holds up. It didn't fall apart the night I made it and it was great for sandwiches the next day. I'm going to tweak the recipe a bit, next time, and use Spicy V-8 juice instead of tomato juice. And I just have to have a ketchup-based topping.

Yum! Moist and delicious. I forgot to buy tomato juice so I used the same amount of tomato sauce instead.

I loved this meatloaf. I'm on Weight Watchers Core and this was perfect. I added a little garlic powder and ketchup and kept everything else the same. The oats worked out perfectly too. The smells that wafted through the house when it was in the oven reminded me of when I was little and my mom was making something cozy and yummy for supper!

I really liked this meatloaf recipe. I used 2 lbs of meat, a little extra tomato juice, and added 2 chopped jalapeno peppers to give it a little kick. Fantastic!

Made this meatloaf and it was very moist, very happy with using the oats... I had never thought of that before and it came out so good! The family loved it and the leftovers for lunch the next day!

This is the best meatloaf I have ever made. My boyfriend hates meatloaf, but he loved this one and he wants me to make it again. I used ground turkey, 1 cup oats, Worcestershire sauce, tomato soup (I didn't have juice) and some spices (paprika, dried mustard, oregano). This was fast and easy and it's a versatile recipe that can be played with a lot. The texture of the loaf was amazing! I will never use breadcrumbs in my meatloaf again.

I've tried many recipes for meatloaf over the years and this is by far the best. The consistency is great, not too sloppy. Use ground sirloin of ground round and it's extra fantastic!

I was planning to make my usual meatloaf and realized I was out of some my usual ingredients. Instead I started with this recipe, plus the helpful reviews, and my usual meatloaf is much improved. Started with 1.20 pound ground beef, V8 Lemon Twist instead of tomato juice, 1 cup quick cooking oats, 2 eggs, maybe 1 cup of finely chopped/sauteed green pepper and sweet onion plus a little garlic. Lots of fresh ground black pepper, a tiny sprinkle of salt, some Pampered Chef italian seasoning and maybe a 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese. Also started and ended with brown sugar, thanks to another reviewer - a little on the bottom of the dish and a little more over the top. This is the only non-crumbly meatloaf I've made so far, this one stayed in firm slices, a plus when it comes to my favorite thing about meatloaf..the cold sandwiches the next day. This was successful.

This meatloaf was very moist, and tasted good. A little bland for my taste, and will spice it up with some garlic and hot sauce next time. Overall though - good recipe!
