Meatloaf is an easy go to family favorite. It is also a great recipe to use when you are super short on time. I know that sounds odd because it takes a long time to actually cook but you can cook it the day before and it reheats perfectly!
You can also double the recipe and make 2 and freeze one for another night! That way all you have to do is defrost and reheat. Finding meals that work well for busy nights is an absolute must in my house!
I also use meatloaf for a night when I want to eat seafood. I normally do not cook multiple meals but I’m the only one who likes to eat seafood so I will make my boys and my husband meatloaf and myself some kind of fish and then we will all eat the sides!
