Kate's Hearty Meatloaf
"I have made many different meatloaf recipes, but this is the one I will make from now on. This recipe is from Kate Gosselin from " John and Kate plus Eight" . This is a clever way to sneak vegetables onto picky eaters plates. It seems like alot of vegetables, but if you use the food processor on pulse to shred the vegetables finely without pureeing them, they cook down to nothing. What you have is a moist, flavorful meatloaf. I have one of the world's most pickiest eaters and even he ate it and said it was very good."

I'm sorry but we weren't crazy about this. I don't know if I did something worng - did use a food processor to chop up the veggies but they still weren't done when the meatloaf was. We also didn't care for the strong Italian flavor, but that's probably just us. Made this for Spring Pac 2011. -
I thought this was pretty poor. The meatloaf looked good but was a strange texture and the flavour was strange. I wouldn't make it again.

I live in the north west part of Florida with my husband and two wonderful boys. We love the pristine sugar white sandy beaches. I enjoy gardening, reading. Fishing with the family, camping, and entertaining. I collect sea shells and cookbooks. If I have to evacuate for hurricanes, I take my pets, photos, important papers, and my cookbooks. I have recipes that are hand written from my mother and grandmothers that cannot be replaced. My favorite cook is Paula Deen. I have all of her cookbooks. I love to watch her and her children on the Food Network. I also subscribe to her magazine.
