My family loves meatloaf.
It’s great with mashed potatoes or Cheddar Bacon Risotto and even better for leftovers the next day on a sandwich!
(I will admit to eating it for breakfast sometimes).
But some days I am in a hurry and don’t have the time for it to cook in the oven. This is when I had the idea to pan fry them as individual loaves or patties. It works great and you end up cutting the cooking time about in half, which is perfect for us busy cooks!
This recipe is pretty simple, but you can add any of your favorite spices or even use BBQ sauce for the glaze on top!
Yum.
