One of my husband's favorite meals is meatloaf. It's such a simple comfort food, especially in colder weather. Discovering that I can make an excellent meatloaf in the crockpot means that we can even make it in warm weather without heating up th kitchen. I took a little from here & a little from there to make this my own! Not necessarily pretty, but beautiful to eat.
