I have tried many different meats in my meatloaf
but I always come back to my favorite- ground pork!

You can also use heart shaped ramekins for individual meatloaves, ideal for the kiddos.
This recipe made about 4-6 servings depending on how much your kids eat!
Dinner’s ready and it’s almost too cute to eat!
I love making food fun and showing my love through food.
Valentine’s Day is one of my favorite holidays and my foodie family and I always have a great time cooking and eating our festive meals together!

This looks really delicious!
I made brown sugar meatloaf recently – so good! Now I wish I had made it in a heart shape haha
Still single this Valentines so didn't really celebrate. Loved seeing the different dishes being prepared. This one is definitely unique
Oh this would have been so fun to make for my hubby, he is a meat and potatoes type of guy <3 I especially love the glaze, sometimes meatloaf can come out dry so that would really help!
