Paula Deen’s Meatloaf

Paula Deen’s Meatloaf

Today I am going to show you how to make Paula Deen’s meatloaf. If you have been cooking with Paula as long as I have you will know just how fantastic her recipes are and this meatloaf with a gravy sauce is no exception.

I must admit I don’t know what all the fuss about Paula’s comments were recently. In my eyes she is a great cook and a great American. Personally I think her cooking speaks for itself.

Anyway, I have a couple of suggestions you may or may not wish to implement yourself but basically this is a damn good meatloaf just how it is. Firstly, you can lightly brown the onions before adding them to the mix. Secondly, you may also wish to add some chopped green onions and a green bell pepper too. You can never have enough sauce for a meatloaf so multiply the sauce ingredients accordingly and make sure you have plenty.

Even as the recipe stands the list of ingredients is pretty basic but trust me you will not be disappointed by this magnificent meatloaf.
