Wow, this is truly the best meatloaf I’ve ever had. I think the oatmeal adds some richness and creaminess that makes it so outstandingly delicious. I love that it’s so easy to scale up, too. I ended up with enough meat for 6 loaves and scaled everything up but only used 2 eggs, and it was still perfect, great to make extra and freeze or serve individually, and I can’t wait to have one of them as a leftover meatloaf sandwich tomorrow. Thank you for sharing this incredible recipe!
