Meatloaf is a handy way to stretch your meat budget to produce one or two meals for the whole family. If you live alone, you can package and freeze servings to eat throughout the month or take to work as a sandwich or a meal with something else. Meatloaf sandwiches are wonderful the next day, so leftovers are never an issue.
This cookbook has a lot of tasty varieties of meatloaf, and I've been working my way through them.
