I added 1 cup of crushed Cheez-It Cheddar Jack crackers in place of the saltines and cheese. I put a little bit of salsa and shredded cheedar on top for the last few minutes of baking. I will probably make this again. It was very easy and my husband and I enjoyed it. We called it Mexican Meatloaf at our house.

I love meatloaf but I did not like this one at all, nor did my family. My youngest daughter said it tasted okay; however, she left most of it on her plate uneaten. I was not happy with the taste or texture and I'm sorry to say I won't be making it again.

I used ground turkey and hot salsa and my husband and I both loved it!

Pretty good, but not my favorite. My partner doesn't like 'a bite' so we used mild salsa. Maybe next time I'll kick it up a notch with medium salsa. Very moist however, and will make good sandwiches and left overs

I absolutely love this recipe! My kids aged 6 and 4 also love this! It was a great hit. I added my own homemade salsa which I home canned and really loved the flavor. A +++++

I didn't have jack cheese, so I used cheddar and it still came out wonderfully. This recipe has a permanent place in my menu.

I made this for dinner last night & it was really good. I thought that 1 1/2 cups of salsa seemed like a lot, but it's not. Also, even using the medium salsa, it was not too spicy. It's a great way to use up stale saltines, too. I found that a cup of crushed saltines is about half of a sleeve of crackers. My husband poured extra salsa on top. Very easy. I will make this again & may even add a can of chopped chiles.

This was pretty good for a change but my family likes my regular meatloaf recipe better. I substituted Ritz crackers for the saltines.

This is a great recipe. It's easy and a real crowd pleaser. I have since been asked for this recipe from my sister, my mom, and even my grandmother. It's that good. I sprinkled cheese and poured a strip of salsa along the top 10 minutes left in the cooking time to make it look even better.

As far as meatloaves go, this is one of the best with lots of flavor.

Neither myself nor my husband liked this recipe. Although it's an easy recipe, it was rather bland and tasteless. I think it must be the salsa I used. I'll use the leftovers to make a taco salad!

A GOOD MEATLOAF! I will be using this recipe from now on. I did add about 1/2 cup of bell pepper(my husband says it's not meatloaf without it). I think it might need a small amount of salt, but it is a snap to prepare! I shaped it in a casserole dish so it would brown-and it came out just right.Thanks, Katthy, you have a winner here!

I made this last night. Really quick & easy. I thought it might need salt, but it was perfectly seasoned. I used Provolone instead of jack cheese, because it was all I had, but it was delicious. Next time I will be sure to try it that way, too. Also, I might try shaping it into a loaf in a roasting pan, so the top had a browner, more attractive appearance. But the texture and flavor were wonderful. I will be making it again.

This took about 10 minutes to prepare. If you don't like spicy foods, it tastes delicious with mild salsa; if you do, use extra hot and prepare to sizzle. Use different brands of salsa to dial in the perfect flavor and heat level.
