This is the best meatloaf I have ever made and the kids agree with me because there isn't any left. I made a few changes. First, I used red onion. Second, I used a half ground beef, half turkey mixture. I skipped the mustard in the glaze because I'm allergic. Kids have already told me that it is going in the regular rotation.

I followed the recipe closely, only adding just a pinch of salt instead of the full two teaspoons. I did what the directions stated and baked it for an hour-twenty, then poured the sauce over the top. What happened was there was still more juice and fat on top of the meat loaf so when I went to pour it off so I could get it out of the pan, the sauce went with it. There wasn't near enough time to solidify that sauce on top and in my opinion, there was a little too much. The meat loaf itself held together REALLY well but it didn't have much flavor. I think this could be a great meat loaf with a little tweaking. Some spices thrown in and maybe made into a loaf and placed on some kind of rack so the fat/juice drains off but the sauce is able to firm up on top of the loaf.

This is the best meatloaf I have ever eaten!!! Even if you don't like meatloaf you need to make this, you won't be disappointed. I made this exactly as the recipe stated except for I doubled the glaze. This was so moist and flavorful, I made baked potatoes and a green salad. This is the best please try this. Thanks for a superb recipe!!!

This was excellent, a unanimous favorite among my family of five. I may try it without the cheese sometime just to see if it makes much difference (in order to cut back some of the calories). Otherwise this recipe is perfect exactly as written!

We have tried many of the meatloafs on this sight. This is our favorite. The only change I make is to use 2 teaspoons Worcestershire a clove or garlic minced and we use 1/2 parm and 1/2 cheddar. This is a great meatloaf.

This turned out very good, the only thing was that the onions were still a little crunchy. Next time, I'll try cooking the onions first before I put them in the meat mixture. My husband loved the carrots, he said it was a change from traditional meatloaf and my son loved the glazed. He must have eaten 1/2 of the loaf. He's a big boy.

I am not a huge fan of meat loaf, but this recipe is awesome. Its the chunks of bread and the carrots that do it for me. I do omit the onions just out of personal preference. I have used the glaze coating before I saw this recipe, but it really goes good with this loaf. I never use any other meatloaf recipe anymore.

Great!! I left out the carrot and cheddar cheese and added some Hidden Valley Tomato and Bacon Salad Dressing. I used bread crumbs instead of bread slices. Yummmmm!

There's ~ 4 steps to this recipe, read it slowly. I did not and just mixed it all together... And it still turned out great! The husband loved it and I was excited I could sneak in a few carrots. Next time I'll do it as the recipe directs, add a bit more cheese and veggies. Thanks Marjorie!

This is the only meatloaf I will ever make. I made it a long time ago and lost the recipe. My hubby even likes it, I do add bbq sauce instead of ketsup.
