Right with ya on Hangers and brooms, don't forget wooden spoons. I hated one of my Grandmothers meatballs, she put pine nuts in them, it made me gag.
Seriously though look at the ingrediants in those recipes. It's called meat loaf not beefloaf. Mix up at least 3 meats, 2 part beef, 1 part other meat, & 1 part another meat. And where's the bread ya gotta have bread, it's supposed to be a loaf get it, bread= loaf. just 1 dry piece to a lb of meat. Try it, you'll like it, all those other ingrediants sound good but be creative with the meat.

I edited my post and removed all of that - I went on a rant! I have settled down now :p I was never hit with a spoon, that would be kitchen territory and my Gran... she never lifted a hand to me =] The Evil One got me with everything else, though. Darned PHEASANT! Roasted now :p

Yeah, I left out bread... isn't that just a way to stretch the meat? I do get your meaning about MEATloaf versus BEEFloaf... that makes sense... I'll take it into consideration when I shop. I am going with MEATloaf or MEATpatties in the way of hamburger patties with a mushroom gravy... I am not a potato masher, so it will be roasted potatoes and some form of vegetables.

The bread is for texture, for the same reason it's used in meatballs, not to stretch the meat. :rules:

texture... ummm, yeah... IF I WANNA EAT BREAD I'LL MAKE A SANDWICH! How's that? Sounds like RiverRat1 on a rant =] How about... I'll THINK about adding ONE SLICE OF BREAD per pound of MEAT? That's all I can do... I am a full-figured gal watching my carbs :/ I WANT MEAT, NOT BREAD! Heh! Sorry, just being silly...

Best Answer on Yahoo: <- makes sense... not the boob reference, but the eggs need bread to bind thingy.

Because meatloaf was made as a way to stretch the amount of meat you have, sort of like getting a boob job makes the amount of boobs you have seem bigger. The recipe was made during lean times, such as war, and used bread crumbs and the like to make more of your meat dollar and/or rations.

Read up on your history people. It isn't to keep it moister or to bind it together. Adding eggs are necessary when adding the bread or grain filler but not when you don't, only because then does it need binding. Making meatloaf without fillers is absolutely possible but it isn't traditional for the reason I wrote of.

You win. Grams made lousy meatloaf.
Probably because she made it like a hamburger. It just needed BREAD!!!
Oh yea, I forgot, you win.

Sheesh... I didn't WANT TO WIN! I just wanted something interesting to keep me awake :p

I just found a recipe for meatloaf with OATMEAL!!! Does that make you gag? LMAO!

Looks like you are right... 3 different ground meats make it the best 'old fashioned' meatloaf and not the 'cheap alternative' to a meal.

Heh! I've nodded off twice waiting for you to call it a night =] Rest easy, Chic :closedeyes: ...and thanks for the tips! I will absolutely, 100% go with your 3 ground meats =]

But I am thinking about using some seasoned croutons =] Specifically, I am planning egg + bread, + croutons, + oatmeal, and also a 'no filler at all' in mini meatloaves =] Then I can decide which I prefer.

I put your quote at the bottom so you can still have the last word =] Anything I can do to help... I will :p

:banana: You Win!!! :banana:

Good Night Lisa. Fun time food fighting with you while I watched "Wreck It Ralph". Talk to you later. USE BREAD!!!! Last word is MINE, MINE, MINE!!!! I Win. Bye:banana:

Good Morning :)
I use stuffing mix,eggs, and meat in my meatloaf. Makes good leftovers for hubby to take to work for lunch. I have friends that grate veggies in it to get their kids to eat veggies.
After all the discussion yesterday we ended up having tacos :)
Majority wins round here.
Tonight chicken tenders....

#1 So I'm still a long way from catching up, and I don't think I'll be doing that tonight. I had a trying day. As I have said already at some point, my landlord is selling the place I live in. I have gone through this process and have no desire to repeat it. Well today while I was gone, the landlord came banging on my door with her panties all in a bunch about me having a dog. Now, technically, I'm not supposed to have a dog, but she has known about it for like a year and one of my other neighbors also has a dog. Well, here she comes pounding on my door today to announce another inspection, less than a week after the last one, and to give me a very rude letter ordering me to get rid of my dog and "immediately clean all poop and urine from inside and outside in the yard". Um.... last I checked there was no poop and urine spread around my house. If I had been here I would have told her off. Great way to treat a tenant who has lived at your property for 4 years and paid you literally $30,000 over the course of that time. F-ing A**holes!!!!!!

1- Morning all, well we went out to eat last night, just that busy...
Meatloaf will have to wait for a day off, some of your stories that I glanced over look horrid, I do a 2-3 meat meatloaf typically, and use bread crumbs, and on top nothing beats tomato paste. I can do mashed potato's, but I tend to do that for a Sheppard's pie instead.

1) Wow Tish, I hope you get things worked out, that really sucks. Having dogs myself, people who come to my house always comment on how they would not know I had dogs cuz I try to keep things very clean unless this big furry Belgian Tervuren was not leaning on them demanding to be petted. Poop and Urine around your house? I think NOT! Good luck

#2 In other news, I bit the bullet and purchased a nitecore i4, which should be here in the next couple days. Yay for not having to wait 8 hours to charge my 18650s. And for being able to charge them all at once.

I spent 4 hours at the Laundromat tonight doing a truly epic amount of laundry. I don't remember if it was 14 or 15 loads, but it cost me like $30. Ridiculous. I washed all our winter coats for storing away, sheets, towels, clothing, the works. I miss having a washer and dryer at home.
