Everything was sensational. I even cooked the broccoli to the perfect doneness - just starting to get brown around the edges, but still with some bite to it. And the roasted garlic pieces were crunchy and sweet:
This is truly our favorite recipe for meatloaf. It always comes out perfectly moist and the sweet, tart flavor from the red pepper relish is the perfect compliment to the meatloaf:
I think the best part, though, was that the mashed potatoes smelled like pure butter and tasted better than any I've ever made.

I think I need to try this plugra stuff. the meatloaf looks good. I'll look that recipe up right now... ok, I added it to my list. I'm curious about the tomato relish. also, I have a recipe for meatloaf that I use that I like a lot - I'll be sure to make/post as soon as I can.
ReplyDelete..aaand I'm done making a comment mess all over your stuff haha. thanks for letting me take part here and for giving me feedback.
did I ever tell you that I found you through monster munching? I would guess you knew that since we both link the site. I looked at every link he had and only kept a few that I liked - one being yours because, like I've said, I swear everything you cook is stuff I would make for me and steve. very cool.
anyway, I very much look forward to the next couple of weeks and starting a blog like this of my own! :D
alosha - After I spent way more than I should on Plugra at a specialty grocery store SP found it everywhere he went and always for much less than we paid for it. Now that I know I can get it cheaper I'll be buying it more often. I swear, I've never had mashed potatoes as good as the ones I make with the Plugra.
ReplyDeleteHehe. Trust me, I LOVE that you comment so frequently. The comments have been few and far between lately and I wondered where everyone disappeared to!
You know, I never noticed that we both link to Monster Munching. I am forever in debt to bloggers like him, Seth over at Feasting in Phoenix and The Food Pornographer for linking to my blog. They get so much traffic and most of my referrals (according to site meter) are because people clicked over to me from their blogs. I'm really glad that you liked what you saw. Comments like that really make my day! :)
I promise, this week was an anomaly. I went out with friends twice and we ate leftovers on Monday, but I've got a posting tonight and tomorrow is Pizza Friday and the return of an old favorite so stay tuned!
And start your food blog!!
Yummm this meatloaf looks so good. I love your blog and have added you to my favs.
