Easy Monday Night Meatloaf made with a tangy sweet glaze on top. You can’t go wrong with meatloaf!
Are you good at meal planning? I really wish I was better at it. For some reason I have a mental roadblock when it comes to thinking out that far. I seem to always just run to the store for the basics and grab a few things for a few dinners.
The one thing I do know is what my family likes, and meatloaf always makes the list. We’ve dubbed Mondays – meatloaf Monday around here, to make things easy. It’s not every Monday, but when it works, it does help to take the guess work out of the meal planning. Our week sometimes looks like this:
We had a short time when we as a family were gluten free, and this meatloaf was a great option for dinner because it is made with oats. In addition to being off of gluten, we were off regular sugar, soy… we even made homemade ketchup…I know! Talk about dedication. Making ketchup at home is so easy

When Monday rolls around next week, you can make this meatloaf and your family will love it.
