I know there are some people out there who hate meatloaf but I am not one of them. In fact I could eat meatloaf weekly, especially if we’re making this meatloaf.

This recipe originally came from a Southern Living cookbook but over the years I’ve bent it and tweeted it and made it something completely new. When I started to use the Five Star ground beef it became something even better than I could have imagined.

Five Star Meatloaf

What you will need:

Directions:

I love this recipe because it’s quick, easy and tastes great. I usually serve this with meatloaf with roasted sweet potatoes and a green veggie. The kids often complain when I make meatloaf but somehow there are never any leftovers, so clearly they like it.

Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Anyone who has kids knows that there is often a lot of complaining when it comes to what’s for dinner. That’s why one of my favorite things about Five Star Home Foods is the packaging.

They even look yummy frozen

When they package their meats, Five Star Home Foods uses the latest in vacuum sealing technology. Everything is vacuum sealed and flash frozen so when you cook it it’s tender, juicy and delicious. Before Five Star I would often buy meat in bulk, separate it into portions and freeze it. I don’t have state of the art vacuum sealing equipment in my kitchen so meals made with that meat were often dry and tasteless compared to the meals we’ve enjoyed from Five Star.

I was a little skeptical at first as to how much of a difference the packaging could make when it comes to the quality of the meals we would consume. After enjoying meal after meal of Five Star meat I am convinced that the packaging can make or break the meat when you freeze it.

Many of the options from Five Star come individually wrapped.

Don’t need two pork chops?

You want chicken breast, the kids want pork chops and the husband wants salmon? No worries. While I don’t condone making everyone a different meal sometimes you just need to get something together fast and without children complaining. For my family, we like the individual packaging mostly because some nights we’re not all home together. If I’m working or Bill is traveling we don’t need a whole lot of food and being able to cut three chicken breasts off and just cook them saves me from having leftovers. On nights when I’m at work Bill likes to enjoy some seafood, and the kids can have something else.

I really like how the individual packaging gives my family more options when it comes to dinnertime, especially when we are not all home together. I feel like less food is being wasted because we’re only making what we need instead of what’s in a package.
