Good! I doubled the recipe, making one batch of individual meat loaves and a large loaf pan size which I wrapped and froze after baking. Used an organic herb stuffing mix, otherwise all as stated. The family enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

We loved this. This has a great flavor and easy to put together. I follow the recipe ingredients as stated. I went ahead and crushed the croutons even though it didn't say to. Made for 1,2,3 Hit wonders tag 2007.

I made this late last night thinking we'd have it for dinner the next night, but my husband and I both enjoyed "sample cuts" of it for a late-night snack! We all enjoyed it for lunch, including the kids (who are not normally too keen on meatloaf). The cheese seemed to make it extra moist and bound the loaf nice and tight for slicing. I did use low salt croutons (crushed) in place of the stuffing. Thanks, Parsley for another great recipe. Roxygirl

One of best meatloaf recipes I've ever tasted! I used what I had on hand: 1lb lean ground beef and 1 lb meat loaf mix (beef, veal, pork); 1 box Stove Top cornbread stuffing and Hunt's sauce for meatloaf tomato sauce instead of the ketchup sauce. I also omitted the onions and added 1 cup of water. I cooked the loaves at 375 for 1 hour. The Stove Top really gave the loaves lots of flavor. Very moist and tasty, not dried out. My family loved it; my 5 y/o ate like a champ and for once, they didn't complain when I served it as leftovers the following night. I served it with butter-herbed mashed potatoes, creamed corn and warm bread. Thanks for posting!
